The answer is quite simple.

What you are doing here is calling CWnd::CreateEx, that allows you to create child windows. However, there is a function call CComboBox::Create that will create a combo box control and attach it to the CComboBox object.

The calling convention for Create is a bit different, as you only need to supply the standard flags, rectangle, pointer to parent CWnd and the ID. This call doesn't allow you to specify extended window flags. But you can use GetExStyle, a bit mask and SetWindowLong to set the client edge extended style.

Another reason why it creates an edit box might be because of the ES_NUMBER flag. This flag is meant for edit controls, not comboboxes. All combobox flags start with CBS_ prefix. Try removing it and see what happens.
