I am trying to make something similar to a combobox. When you click on the drop down button on a combobox,a listdrops down outside the boundaries of the control or form.

Could someone point me in the general direction of how to do this?

A ComboBox actually does this by creating several controls. It uses an edit control, a button, and a dynamic list box. If you want to "display outside its boundaries" the only way to do this is to create another control where you want something displayed.
