How do I have an enum bound combobox with custom string formatting for enum values?

by

ComboBox has everything you need: the FormattingEnabled property, which you should set to true, and Format event, where you’ll need to place desired formatting logic. Thus,

myComboBox.FormattingEnabled = true;
myComboBox.Format += delegate(object sender, ListControlConvertEventArgs e)
    {
        e.Value = GetDescription<HowNice>((HowNice)e.Value);
    }
