If you mean by dropdown box that you don't want to see the editable part of a ComboBox, just set its <a href="https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.combobox.dropdownstyle%28v=vs.110%29.aspx" rel="ugc">DropDownStyle</a> property to DropDownList. That will disable the edit box and just show the list, sort of like a select element in html.
