How to lock combobox for typing

Question

I use DevExpress 2.4 and I have a combobox which is bound to a row in a propertygrid control. I want to disable this combobox for editing it content by keyboard and be able only to choose the value by clicking with the mouse. I read on the internet just to change the DropDownStyle property to DropDownList, instead of DropDown but when I go to the combobox in properties I don't have property DropDownList and only DropDownItemHeight and DropDownRows... So how to disable typing in this combobox?

Answer 1

Open property editor for this GridControl and open repository, now in options of this ComboBox go down to TextEditStyle and choose DisableTextEditor as option.

Answer 2

Just do this: this.comboBoxType.DropDownStyle = ComboBoxStyle.DropDownList;

Answer 3

How about using the LookupEdit control?
