Remarks

Sets/returns to determine whether the drop down button is visible or hidden. The Visible property allows you to set the timing of displaying the drop down button.

If set to 0-Button hidden or 1-Button visible, the object indicates whether the button is visible or hidden permanently.

If set to 2-On Focus, the button will be visible only during when the control has the focus.

When this property is set to 0-Button hidden, although mouse interactions for the drop down feature will be limited, all other keyboard manipulations will be available such as using the Key object or the Alt+Down. In this case, assume that the control and the DropDown object are enabled.

If the MultiLine property is set to True, the dropdown button will be hidden and the control will not respond to any user generating events. The DropDown object is supported only in the single line mode.

This is the default property of the DropDown object.
