Thanks, this is a very good idea. I have already started on a single-control version of this, but if I run into problems with it, I will attempt a composite class implementation.

>>We have a fairly large application which includes a ton of comboboxes whose Style property is set to 2 ("Dropdown List"). Now I have a new field for which I think the best user interface is a Style 1 ("Dropdown Combo") combobox. This combobox will have a few "standard" entries, but the user will also be able to type their own entry.
>>
>>My concern is that our users (many of whom are computer newbies), not used to being able to type in a combobox, might choose one of the "standard" entries rather than typing something more accurate when appropriate. One application I saw used blue "elephant ears" (something like parentheses which were colored in) around the combobox control to differentiate this combobox from others. Another option is a tooltip that says (essentially), "Select an option or type your own!"

>>Does anyone have any other ideas on how to do this?
