I have a dialog box with several simple combo-boxes with read-only
drop-down lists (i.e. if I click on a selection it pops up to the top as
the selected item).

*During* the dialog, do I have to process messages received from the
combo-boxes, i.e. do I have to:
	index=(int)SendDlgItemMessage(hdlg,id,CB_GETCURSEL,0);
to get the current selection or is it sufficient to just retrieve them all
(for each combo-box) at the end when OK is selected?  It doesn't seem
necessary to respond *during* the dialog, since the combo-box will pick the
selection and copy it to the top line as 'selected'.
