If I am understanding you correctly, it would seem sufficient to set the combo style to DropDown Combo and grab the data in the DisplayValue property of the combo in an appropriate event, such as when the user clicks an "Ok" button on the form.

If the user selected an existing option in the combo, the combo's Value property and DisplayValue property will contain the same data. if the user typed something new into the combo's textbox, combo's Value property and DisplayValue property will contain different data. You can test for this and take whatever action is appropriate. If there is new data typed into the combo textbox, grab this data from the combo's DisplayValue property and use it as needed.
