Hi,

I am having an old aspx page with ASP.Net controls. Now in that i want to use RadComboBox to get the editable combo facility. Please tell me how can i make RAD combo consistent with the default ASP.NET combo used. As i dont have much time to change the all page controls to telerik one.

Please suggest me how can i change the RADCombo skin on the bases of OS like for windows 2k ("Classic"), windows XP ("Windows XP") etc.

Hello Simon Tomikeh,

Unfortunately, such functionality is not supported by RadComboBox, since the styles are loaded from a single stylesheet only. It can be achieved only through a client script that detects the current operating system and loads os-specific styles, yet the overhead of such a scenario will be enormous and the goal doesn't justify the means. I recommend you to use a system-like skin (e.g. Vista) and stick with it across pages - this way a more consistent look will be achieved until you replace the controls in the application.

All the best,
