All depends on how it's bound. Typically, the PK is bound to the combo as
the ValueMember. Then to pick it up on selection, it's simply
Cint(cmbWhateve r.SelectedValue ).

I have built a control that runs an on-line help system. Depending on the category you selected via dropdownlist, it goes out and gets the child subcategories, and if there are any, adds a new dropdownlist to the screen for selection. This continues until there are no children, and then it checks for a help article list based on that last selection and displays actual articles for display. Adding the controls and getting everything...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
