VB.NET: how to prevent user input in a ComboBox

Question

How do you prevent user input in a ComboBox so that only one of the items in the defined list can be selected by the user?

Answer 1

Seeing a user banging away at a control that overrides her decisions is a sad sight. Set the control's Enabled property to False. If you don't like that then change its Items property so only one item is selectable.
