	Functionality of Combo Boxes
	----------------------------

1. Can the listbox of a combobox have a horizontal scroll bar?
2. Can the listbox of a combobox show tabbed text strings?
3. Can the listbox of a combobox trap DoubleClick Mouse events?
4. Is it possible to get the handle to the listbox of a combobox?
5. Why is the listbox of a combobox different from a standard listbox???

I assumed a combobox is comprised of an edit control and a listbox. Hence,
I tried a GetWindow, GetNextWindow iteration to try and obtain the
listbox handle with the intention of passing it standard listbox
messages like LB_SETHORIZONTALEXTENT etc. I could not obtain the listbox
handle at all and even if I could, I'm not sure it will behave similar
to a standard listbox.

Is it possible to achieve any of the above? 
Any suggestions/tips would be welcome.


Postings to this group or e-mail would be great.
