<div>
I have tried using PostMessage() in the OnDropdownCombo1() function<br />
to call another function to display the messagebox. &nbsp;The messagebox<br />
comes up allright, but then the list part of the combobox closes,<br />
so no item can be selected.<br />

IF you want to have open listbox part ob combobox after message box is closed then as soon as user press &quot;OK&quot; on your message box, send CBN_DROPDOWN message to combobox class to reopen list box and not to display message box this time. <br />

is this the first ONDROPDOWN or the second one, etc...<br />
<br />
Thanks anyway - at least I can get it working now.<br />

Kernel and system programming is the process of creating the software necessary for a computer or device to function and operate other programs. Some operating systems (such as Microsoft Windows) are proprietary, but others, such as the various Linux distributions, are open source.
