Is it possible to change a Winforms combobox to disable typing into it?

So that it just allows selecting items already inside, but not allow typing/editing the text inside it?

Set ComboBox.DropDownStyle to ComboBoxStyle.DropDownList.

After trying ShaneFulmer's answer, I noticed that the style of the drop down was changed. This was a problem for me and apparently there is no good way of changing it. (Background color doesn't actually change it.)

I ended up adding a keypress handler to prevent adding text.

private void myCombo_KeyPress(object sender, KeyPressEventArgs e)
{
e.Handled = true;
}
