The elusive Flat ComboBox

This is gonna drive me crazy.

I want a flat combobox. I've been through several examples, all
written in C#, which I don't understand that well. Most don't subclass
the combo, but I need all the ComboBox's functionality..

Conceptually, I'm thinking I should subclass a ComboBox, override some
sort of Paint event, and draw a border that covers up the 3D border
and adds a single line.

In practice, I can't figure out how to do it. I've inherited a
combobox for a control, but the IDE won't seem to let me add it to the
toolbar..

So I'm just a freshman to .NET, and I need a little hand-holding. Can
someone point me in the right direction, preferably with a VB.NET
example?

Thanks in advance for any advice.
