Databinding 2 comboboxes to the same Datasource

ECathell

I am trying to databind 2 combo boxes to the same datasource but different fields using the same lookup table. The information in combobox2 is duplicating combobox 1(ie it appears to be gathering the wrong information) I have verified the proper information through query analyzer....

Me.FormatName1ComboBox.DataSource = LabelFormats

Me.FormatName1ComboBox.DisplayMember = "Formatname"

Me.FormatName1ComboBox.ValueMember = "FormatName"

Me.FormatName1ComboBox.DataBindings.Add(New Binding("SelectedValue", ProductsBindingsource, "FormatName1"))

Me.FormatName2ComboBox.DataSource = LabelFormats

Me.FormatName2ComboBox.DisplayMember = "Formatname"

Me.FormatName2ComboBox.ValueMember = "FormatName"

Me.FormatName2ComboBox.DataBindings.Add(New Binding("SelectedValue", ProductsBindingsource, "FormatName2"))

Hi,

The currency manager will keep the 2 comboboxes in sync when they
are bound to the same datasource. Create a dataview to bind one of the
comboboxes to.

so because they both have the same datasource(lookup table) they will stay
in sync? so really then I need to create a second instance of the lookup
datasource....ok...seem redundant since it is the SAME lookup datasource and
bound to different columns of the products datasource...
