This control was made after the useful Icon Picker Combo Box by Joel Wahlberg.

Usage

1. Include CBitmapPickerCombo.cpp and CBitmapPickerCombo.h in your project
2. In the resource editor, create a regular combobox with at least the following styles: DropList, OwnerDraw Variable, Has Strings
3. Create a control member variable for the combobox in VC's classwizard
4. Replace CComboBox with CBitmapPickerCombo in your dialog's .h file
5. In OnInitDialog, use the AddBitmap or InsertBitmap member functions to add CBitmaps (and optional strings) to the combobox

The height of the combobox is automatically set to the highest bitmap.
