    I am trying to make an editable ComboBox in the Metro App by using TextBox as ComboBoBoxItem. But the ComBoBox is not allow me to enter SPACE character.

    I am wondering if there is a "IsTextSearchEnabled=false" control to disable the searching capability for the ComboBox while editing the ComboBoxItem. Or Is there a way to intercept the character and add the character to the ComBoBoxItem.

    Thanks,

    Shane

    No, there's no equivalent.

    You may want to move the TextBox outside of the ComboBox rather than including it in the template. You can wrap them both in a user control and swap visibility when the user tries to open the ComboBox.

    Make sure to add a keyboard method to open the ComboBox if you override the default methods.
