If you want to assign a value to a ComboBox with a Style of csDropDownList
you have to do it using the ItemIndex property.
e.g. if you have a list
Fred
Teddy
Mountain
and you want to assign 'Teddy' to the combo box you will need to do the
following.
ComboBox1.ItemIndex := ComboBox1.Items.IndexOf('Teddy');

I must be missing something.
I need a ComboBox which is ReadOnly but also allows the text (or
selected item) to be assigned via code. eg. Providing a default.
Currently when Style is csDropDownList, the Text property can not be
assigned. What am I missing!
Cheers,
Ross.
