[WiX-users] ComboBox list not showing on Windows 2000 Server

[Kevin Garman]

Hi All,

I've got a couple ComboBoxes each of which have some values.  When I run
the installer on Windows XP the values show up in the dropdown list as
expected.  When running on Windows 2000 Server, the dropdown list is
empty--it drops down but there's nothing in it.  Is there something I
should know about Windows 2000 Server and MSI?  Below is my code...
