Hi all,
I want to know is there a way to add disable items into the combo
box?
For eg: I need to show some grey out items in the combo box drop down
list, some items in black colour (which is enable text). The reason of
showing grey out text is to stop the users select those items from the
list.
Can anyone please help me with that? Much more appreciated it.

I'm not sure the combo box (which is a Windows control) has that
feature. I would recommend that instead you filter the items that go
into the combo box before you show it to the user.
Here is what I would do:
I would use the OnClick Event of the combo box to load the list of items
you want the user to pick from.
procedure TForm1.ComboBox1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
Combobox1.items.Clear;
Combobox1.items.Add('Choice1'); //Put your logic here on what to enter.
....
end;
If this does not get you what you need, then the OnEnter event might
work better.
Hope this helps!
