right click mouse down event for drop down box

[obulldog27]

is it possible to do a right click mouse down event pop up window for a drop down box. There is no mouse down event option for this type of control.

I assume that you mean a combo box.
In a module

Option Explicit

Public Declare Function SendMessage Lib "user32" _
   Alias "SendMessageA" _
  (ByVal hwnd As Long, _
   ByVal wMsg As Long, _
   ByVal wParam As Long, _
   lParam As Any) As Long

Public Const CB_SHOWDROPDOWN = &H14F

And to cause the Combo Box to drop

SendMessage(Combo1.hwnd, CB_SHOWDROPDOWN, False, ByVal 0)

Golom,

I think what he wants is to right click on a selection in the drop down box, and have it do something different than if he left clicked.

Probably would take some sort of hook to do it, but I don't know it right off the top of my head.

yes I am trying to right click on a selection in a combo box and a delete pop up menu to come up so I can delete the selection.
