My Program: a local C# ADO.Net application using VS 2003
Right now I have about 5 ComboBox's which provides drop down selection
entries from the same MS-Access table via a DataConnection, DataAdapter and
DataSet datasource. Each CB has it's own DA and DS. When I tried to use the
same DS as the datadource for each of the five CB's, changing one of the CB's
selection affectd the other four CB's.
New business requirements require I increase the number of CB's from 5 to
about 100. What do I do? Do I create 100 DA and DS?

Instead of using a different DataSource (DataSet) for each ComboBox, you can
use a different BindingContext :
comboBox1.Bindi ngContext = new BindingContext( );
comboBox1.DataS ource = ds; // same datasource
comboBox1.Displ ayMember = ....;
comboBox2 .BindingContext = new BindingContext( );
comboBox2.DataS ource = ds; // same datasource
comboBox2.Displ ayMember = ....;
.....
This way the comboboxes will create different CurrencyManager s(which
mantains position) for the same datasource/datamember and allow independent
navigating.

Thank You for responding. Great Idea. Will try it this weekend.
One question, the DataSource and DisplayMember assignments are in VS CB
properties window. Where do I put the comboBox1.Bindi ngContext = new
BindingContext( ) statement so I get it in the order you specified or can I
put it anywhere (i.e. Constuctor, form Load() event)? Can I somehow get "new
BindingContext( )" into the VS CB (DataBinding) block ?? Or do I remove the
CB DataSource and DisplayMemeber and put it all in my code after the
InitializeCompo nent();

It doesn't matter where you bind, from code or with the properties window.
The new BindingContext assignments can only be done in in code. A good
place would be after InitializeCompo nent() in the constructor.
If you want independent navigating, sorting and filtering, you can:
Create a different dataview for each combox and bind that ( from code or
designer ) .
If you only want independent navigating you can gain some performance:
Create a single dataview (designer or code) and bind that to all ComboBoxes
and then give each ComboBox a new BindingContext from code.

Again thank you for the free input
Yes, I do want sorting of the comboBox dropdown but didn't know how to do it
Not real familar dataview but have used it once or twice - need to check it
out.

Hope your still there, It gets a little more differcult.
The db may already have a entry for that field that should be loaded as
ComboBox.text when the form opens. The user should also have a choice to
edit the field without changing the other 20 "charaCode" fields
From IntializeCompon ent() method:
this.charaCode1 CB.DataBindings .Add(new System.Windows. Forms.Binding(" Text",
this.csiDbDS, "Main.Character isticCodes1"));
Adding "charaCode1CB.B indingContext = new BindingContext( );" seems to
remove that previous binding

Hi,
I've been searching this one for two days so thought I give this a
shot again. I have two datasets Dataset1 and Dataset2
Dataset1 populates a datagrid and dataset2 populates a combobox within
the datagrid. When I try using SqlCommandBuilder it doesn't work
since I am using two datasets. So am I looking for a way to update
the table for dataset1 using a field from the combobox.

All,
Still a newbie, could someone help me out with this. When I load/Open my form my comboboxes which are tied to datasets all have the first value of the dataset listed in the text area of the combobox. I want to be able to open the form, have the datasets loaded in the combo boxes, but I don't want any initial value selected. A code example mentioning the right place to do this would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thank You in Advance.
