Hi Ian,

Assuming that you are talking about a windows form and not a web page, the answer is: you can't. The LinkLabel is simply not the correct control for this.
However, despair not. There are ways (from easy to difficult):
1. Instead use the ComboBox control which is pretty much the windows forms version of the drop down menu as found on web pages. (the pragmatic solution)
2. create a little form and populate it with buttons or labels or something, with the language alternatives you want. Make it look the way you want and make it appear right under your LinkLabel when you click it. (i.e. fake it)
3. Make a custom control that looks and acts the way you want. Best would probably be again to inherit the ComboBox control, and change its appearance. This solution is basically the same as number 1. except that it is a lot more work. (the stubborn solution)

Good luck with it,

Johan

My advice is free, and you may get what you paid for.
