I have a few combo boxes that are multi lines and each row
of data corresponds with the other combo boxed rows of
data.
But then they there a lot of rows one combo box scrolls
down and the other stay the same. So now the rows of data
don't match from one combo box to the others.
Is there some way to make the others boxes scroll with one
so the rows always match. Basically I want it to work like
a datagrid regarding the scrolling. However, I can't use a
datagrid for this project. Can I bind the combo boxed or
or do it by code?

Thanks

Hi,

If you bind all the comboboxes to the same datasource the currency
manager will keep them in sync.

re: Combo Box



Hi,
It doesn't quite work that way. The data is either user entry or
inserted by using cmbbx.text="blabla".

Is there someover way to bind them. Maybe If I used a scroll bar control
or something?

This a client of mine that first liked the combo boxes and now wants
them to work this way. I really don't want to reprogram the whole thing
and use a datagrid.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

SS

re: Combo Box


Hi Sebatsion,

The textbox from the combobox is very buggy. I never succeeded in binding
that property to something. It did give with me all kind of unpredictable
situations.

Just to warn you because in that I do myself too not have a solution.

So if you find a nice one a lot of people will be lucky.
