How do I insert a drop-down menu for a simple Windows Forms app in Visual Studio 2008?

Question

There appears to be every other kind of drop-down menu--those that allow user input, those for integers only, those that don't...drop down, and even those that have ugly check boxes next to them. I just want a simple drop-down menu (like you'd see if I used in html) that lets the user choose exactly ONE item. (and one's chosen by default) Any ideas? This should be extremely easy, yet I've spent an hour and half figuring this out...

Accepted Answer

You can use a `ComboBox` with its `ComboBoxStyle` (appears as `DropDownStyle` in later versions) set to `DropDownList`. See: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.comboboxstyle.aspx
