.. But I need to use them and it's Just not working!!!! I'm using Visual C++ and I added a combo box to my dialog box. I also added values to the combo box and they still don't show up when I press the little down arrow. I even changed the height of the combo box like you're supposed to. Whats up with this?!?!!?

I have no idea what a combo box is. My guess is you won't find much help here regarding the winAPI. You should seek a community that is crazy enough to program with the winAPI to make a GUI. lol

We need more details....

Is there NO data at all in the combo box?

Is it MFC, .NET, or Win32API?

Anyways, a simple Google search yields this.

Hope this helps.

Man, I feel bad for posting these days.. It seems every time I post a question I immediately figure it out myself. Ya so don't worry about it I got it working now. I'm using Win32 by the way if you're curious.

For those who are curious, a combo-box is a drop-down menu essentially.
