Say you have a combobox with the following items in it: <item1>, <item2> and the DropDownStyle is set to DropDown (allows typing in the text area). If you type "<" in the editable portion and then click the dropdown arrow (force the drop down to show its list), the combobox will set the editable portion to "<item1>". Is there any way for me to disable this functionality? I don't want the combobox to do any autocompletion whatsoever.
 
If you don't want any kind of auto-completion, then why are you even using a
ComboBox?
