Hi Pravin, can you please elaborate on exactly what you want to achieve?

Hi Ravi,

once we mouse down on combobox that time it shows the no. of items

in the combobox, i want to insert colors on that items in the combobox.

So let's say we have the combo box below, with the mouse clicked on the drop down symbol to show the list of items:

For ease and clarity of communication, can you just pop this image in Paint and add some color to show what you want to do?

Do you want to color any or each item in a different color? If so, it might not be possible to do that with the native combo box. However, if you must have that functionality, we can create a workaround.

You could use a listbox... it's pretty easy to set colors to cells/rows with that.

clicking on the combo box (or what looks like a combo box, but is just a string control) can pop up a list box, where you can set different colors and when the user clicks on the list box, the value is copied to the combo box and the list box hides.
