Hi Dave, There is Wx::ComboCtrl (http://docs.wxwidgets.org/2.8.12/wx_wxcomboctrl.html#wxcomboctrl)
with Wx::ComboPopup (http://docs.wxwidgets.org/2.8.12/wx_wxcombopopup.html#wxcombopopup) Which gives you a custom pop-up window for what is essentially a ComboBox. I'm pretty sure it's in the demo where it shows you how to have a three column RadioButton instead of a ListCtrl for a Combo. Have fun.

I was thinking that a dialog window was a bit heavy for just a popup window displaying a list of autocompletions. I did try a panel but that seems to need an associated frame or dialog. > PS I like your Mullah Nasrudin quotes, I had a book of them once, sadly long > since lost. Thanks! I have a few books of them here which I almost guard too jealously to benefit from them. ;) -- Dave Hayes - Consultant - Altadena CA, USA - d...@jetcafe.org >>>> *The opinions expressed above are entirely my own* <<<< A free society is one where it is safe to be unpopular. -- Adlai Stevenson
