I think this is probably a stupid question, but, god help me, I just CANT find a function to do this!! I am making a level editor for my game in MFC (Visual C++ 6) and I have a few combo boxes with the Drop List style. Whenever they are displayed, they just have 1 line when they are dropped down, and a little tiny vertical scroll bar to access the rest of the items on it. I need to resize the drop down part so that you can see all of the items in it. What is the function to set the size of the drop down box? I have looked in the help files to no avail, and I have checked the samples, and found one sample that uses those controls, and it was bigger than 1 line, but I couldn''t find any function calls or anything different!

Okay, I assume you use the resource editor. When you make a list-box.....you click on this list-box, at the drop-down button. Then it''ll show you the state how the list box will be seen when accessed. Just change it to the height you want it to be..
