I'm not an expert on the subject but here it goes... ComboBox, is
available with gtk# 1.9 (development version). I used pygtk
documentation for reference, ComboBoxes are a lot like TreeViews with
some minor differences.

This is a small example I can think of. Feel free to correct me if I
do something wrong, anyone, I know I'm not the best :)

ComboBox combo =3D new ComboBox();
// I use a name and an invisible ID
ListStore store =3D new Store(typeof(string), typeof(int));=20
CellRendererText text =3D new CellRendererText();
combo.PackStart(text, false);
combo.AddAttribute(text, "text", 0);

TreeIter iter;
iter =3D store.AppendValues("-- Select", 0);
combo.SetActiveIter(iter);
store.AppendValues("Item 1", 1);
store.AppendValues("Item 90", 90);

// this is how I do the loops, one could use the
// Foreach method or I guess there's a better way
// well, if there is, i'd be glad to know :)
if(store.GetIterFirst(out iter)) {
  do {
      int id =3D store.GetValue(iter, 1);
      string name =3D store.GetValue(iter, 0);
      Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}",  id, name);
  } while(store.IterNext(ref iter))
}
