Extended Listview Control -- Dropdown list

Platform:  Visual Basic 6  (not vb.net)

I'm looking for a way to do a dropdown list with the listview control, much like the code at:

http://www.codeguru.com/Cpp/controls/listview/editingitemsandsubitem/article.php/c979

The sourcecode to something like this would be worth some bonus points from me:

Basically, I need to allow users to enter text in a listview, but want to guide them to entering it from a predefined list.

Something like the Attendee list (w/o availability) in an Outlook Meeting Request is what I'm shooting for in the end.

Any help in pointing me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Okay....

It took me awhile to get back to this feature, but how do you do the first part of getting the exact position and size of the cell.

Here's how to do what I wanted with a text box instead of a combo box.  It's should be easy enough to make the change.
