Windows Phone 7 Development - ComboBox Problem

This is for the developers who must have been struggling with, why a Silverlight ComboBox is not working in a Windows Phone 7 application. Although the code does allow to put a ComboBox control to the page but actually it doesn't work when you try to run the page with ComboBox controls. This control has been removed in Windows Phone 7 development and you won't find this in ToolBox either in Visual Studio or Expression Blend. I think the ComboBox is not designed to work with touch screen input.

Please check the msdn article on the same.

By default in Windows 7 and Windows Vista ...
