Hi

How can i disable Paste on ComboBox?

ComboBox DropDownStyle is DropDown.
ComboBox must accept only numbers.

I know how to handle keypress event to accept only digits, but how to
disable paste?

Best regards;
Mex

Mex,

Well, you can subclass the ComboBox and handle the WM_PASTE message in
your overriden WndProc method. However, I would say that you shouldn't do
this.

Rather, when information is pasted, figure out if it is a number, and if
it is, allow the paste. If not, then don't change the contents.
