<h5 id="GrapeCity_Win_Spread_InputMan_CellType_GcComboBoxCellType_DropDownStyle_remarks">Remarks</h5>
<div class="markdown level1 remarks"><p>The <b>DropDownStyle</b> property controls the interface that is presented to the user.
You can enter a value that provides a simple drop-down list box, where the list always displays, a drop-down list box,
where the text portion is not editable and you must select an arrow to view the drop-down, or the default drop-down list box,
where the text portion is editable and the user must press the arrow key to view the list.</p>
<p></p>
If you set the <b>DropDownStyle</b> property to <b>DropDownList</b>, 
you can select only valid values from the list. If you set the <b>DropDownStyle</b> property to <a class="xref" href="GrapeCity.Win.Spread.InputMan.CellType.GcComboBoxCellType.DropDown.html#GrapeCity_Win_Spread_InputMan_CellType_GcComboBoxCellType_DropDown">DropDown</a>, 
you can type any value in the editable area of the <span class="xref">GrapeCity.Win.Spread.InputMan.CellType.GcComboBox</span> cell. In this case, 
the <b>Append</b> value of <a class="xref" href="GrapeCity.Win.Spread.InputMan.CellType.GcComboBoxCellType.AutoCompleteMode.html#GrapeCity_Win_Spread_InputMan_CellType_GcComboBoxCellType_AutoCompleteMode">AutoCompleteMode</a> works 
the same as the <a class="xref" href="https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.windows.forms.autocompletemode#system-windows-forms-autocompletemode-suggestappend">SuggestAppend</a> value of <b>AutoCompleteMode</b>.
