Hi,
1. First and foremost, this question is about Combo Boxes in MFC ONLY. COMBO BOXES, NOT LIST BOXES.
2. I am creating this program that is taking video camera information in a combo box. However, the info maybe too long to fit in a combo-box. I would like to make each item in the combo-box have multiple lines so that the text can be fit in and yet be read properly.
3. Can someone please explain to me the meaning of OWNER DRAW VARIABLE and OWNER DRAW FIXED and no OWNER DRAW? I understand for the above to happen I need to set the combo box to OWNER DRAW VARIABLE. Do any of you have any sample code that you could provide to help me? Or, what do I have to change to the code in the question (within EXPERTS EXCHANGE) "Multi-line entries in ListBoxes & ComboBoxes" ?
4. Really sorry, but I just can't make out what's going on in the "Multi-line entries in ListBoxes & ComboBoxes" as I am rather new to this whole MFC thing. To me, the DrawItem is the most confusing function...so please explain what DrawItem does. Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
