  I have a RadComboBox with a list of strings as item. My RadComboBox has IsEditable property to True. I wanted to know how I could do that when the user enters a value in the input field of RadComboBox, it is added to the list of items if it is not already there?

  Hi Laurent,
  
  I can suggest you the following solution: hook to the KeyUp event of the ComboBox and on the click of the insert key to add the item into your collection. Attached I am sending you a sample project which illustrates this approach.
  
  Hope this helps.

  This is too funny, that's exactly what I coded, pending your response. So I did the right thing. Thank you.
