SUMMARY
Combo box Style property presets have discontinuous numeric values.



MORE INFORMATION
Choices are "0 - Dropdown Combo" and "2 - Dropdown List" when you might expect "0 - Dropdown Combo" and "1 - Dropdown List" instead.

This is by design. Microsoft did this for Visual Basic compatibility. Visual Basic has three settings for this value. The Simple Combo, which is setting 1 in Visual Basic, is not available in Visual FoxPro.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

 * 1) Place a combo box control on a form.
 * 2) Double-click the Style property to cycle through the preset options.
