Installation Instructions

VB Example Project

DCombo is a dual list combo box control.  The left list is used to filter the items in the right list.  It has two optional buttons in the combo box portion of the control.  They each fire a click event and can be used for a variety of functions.  The control has 4 border styles and colors can be set for each list and the combo box independently.  The left list is visible only if populated, so DCombo can be used as a single list combo box also.

Keyboard actions

The Up/Down Arrow keys, Page Up, and Page Down keys navigate through a list.  Holding down the Shift key directs keystrokes to the left list.  The Home and End keys are directed to the edit control if the CBStyle property is set to DropdownCombo, otherwise the list box window receives the keystrokes.

Compatibility

I wrote this in ATL using Visual C++ 6.0.  It has no dependencies other than the hcdcombo.lic file included with the download.  You only need to distribute hcdcombo.ocx with your applications.  I have tested it in VB 4.0, VB 6.0, Office 97, Office 2000, Visual C++, and InterDev.  The HTML Help file only works in containers that support .chm help systems.  It should run on any 32 bit Windows OS.  If you have problems let me know.

License Agreement

The control is licensed, but FREE!  Use it for anything you please, but use it at your OWN RISK, I make no claims what so ever about the control.
