<H2>wxComboBox</H2>
<P>
A combobox is like a combination of an edit control and a listbox. It can be
displayed as static list with editable or read-only text field; or a drop-down list with
text field; or a drop-down list without a text field.<P>
A combobox permits a single selection only. Combobox items are numbered from zero.<P>
