Combobox problems with selectedindex and selectedvalue

jac
Hey,

this.CmbDataSou rce = SoortKwijtingLi st.Items; // Arraylist
this.Cmb.Displa yMember = "Omschrijvi ng";
this.Cmb.ValueM ember = "Id";
this.Cmb.Select edIndex = -1;
(short description : I have a grid and an input area with a textfields,
combobox and 3 buttons add, update and delete. add : make a new record with
the input fields and add it to the grid, update ; change the record in scope
with the new values in the input fields; del : delete the record in scope)

When I made my choice in the combobox and push the Cancel-button then I want
to show the previous values (the values I had before of the selected record)
and I do this now like
this :

f (kwijting.Soort Kwijting == null )
this.Cmb.Select edIndex = -1;
else
this.Cmb.Select edValue = kwijting.SoortK wijting.Id;

This works fine. But then I push the Add-button (add new record). I want to
clean up all the values in the screen (want all my comboboxes, textfields
etc. are empty, so I can start to fill in the screen).
So, for the comboboxes I do this :

this.Cmb.Select edIndex = -1;

If I look in 'QuickWatch" he changes my selectedindex not to -1, but to 1.
And so he gives me always the first choice in view of the combobox.

When I do it like this :
this.Cmb.Select edIndex = -1;
this.Cmb.Select edValue= -1;

Then the combobox view is empty.

I don't understand that I have to do 2 things. What can be wrong here?
Because selectedvalue is filled up? But that is normal?

Thanks for help.
Jac

Using .Net CF, i have created a 2 dimension ArrayList, and "binded" this list to a ComboBox control using the "DataSource" property. I have set the DisplaySource and ValueMember properties as well. The control populates well, both the display values, and selected values. However, when i try to "set" the SelectedValue or SelectedIndex properties, nothing happens.... The default blank value in the ComboBox is always selected. My code is: ...

Shouldn't I be able to set the selected item of a combobox with the SelectedValue property? The ComboBox has four items, the values are 1 through 4. Here's an example of what I'm trying to do: Sub SetLevel(Level as Short) cboLevel.SelectedValue = Level End Sub I try this assignment, and the SelectedValue property remains Nothing. I know for sure that the Level variable is within the 1 - 4 range, and no

ComboBox databindng Problem == How the ComboBox is setup and used: My comboBox is populated by a lookup table.

I'm struggling with combobox databinding with something I consider a bug... I'm binding my combobox to an array of structs. The struct exposes two public properties, ID and Name, to be used as the value and displaymember properties. This works fine. My combobox contains the correct data. However I'm also binding my SelectedValue property to a column in a datatable. Here's where I'm lost. The combobox doesn't show the correct

Can I use a bound ComboBox for both browsing and editing? I'm working on a small, standalone database application using Visual C#.NET 2003 and an Access data file. In order to keep the number of different screens down to a minimum, I'm trying to use the same Windows Forms for both browsing and for updating. This works fine for TextBoxes, but I'm running into problems with my DropDownLists (ComboBoxes).

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

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. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
