Introduction

A drop down menu. Compared to a CT_LISTBOX or CT_TOOLBOX it can display many items without taking a lot of space. Disadvantage is that the user has to interact first with the control so see multiple entries.

A normal CT_COMBO
A CT_COMBO can have a picture on the right and on the left
Tooltips are also no problem
