ComboBox losing first item after selection

3 New Member
Hello all, I am a newbie and this is my problem.

I have a program that uses a simple access database. Seperate tables in the database fill several comboboxes. When the user selects an item in the combobox that is not the first item, that selected item replaces the first entry in the combobox and I cannot figure out how to get that first item back.

I am using VB 2005 Express

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When I run the project, the combox box initially displays an empty selection. When I click on the drop down arrow I see the "Make a Selection" followed by the other choices. How can I move everything up so that the "Make a Selection" is the default value in...

Hi, I have a combobox and datagrid in a form. When an Item is selected from a combobox, a method is called, which will make selection from a database according selected item and populate datagrid. I used comboBoxLastName_SelectedValueChanged handler, but this handler is called for every Item when combobox is initialized at the start. It means there is made database access for every item, which is not needed and slows down application.

Could anyone help me with the following: Is there a quick, or at least known way to force a ComboBox, having DropDownStyle= DropDownList, to recognize keyboard input and perform Item selection based on that. To be more specific: I have a list of 150 items (all 7-digit numeric values) represented in the combobox, and they are sorted. Instead

Hi, two parts to my problem if someone can help address either one or both: 1. I want to SELECT everything in the table if it matches the criteria when the query button is pressed (this is just a commandbutton on my form). The biggest problem I'm having is that I can't (don't know how) populate a combobox on static items such as "True, False, Any." The Any field, would be selected by the user to find all records where that fields is...

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