Question Binding combobox

[mwthomas]

Hi

For school I'm making a project for a party and I have a problem with getting a selected item in my combobox.

I have a window with a combobox and a listview.
The listview contains 'stock-objects' (has a ProductID, PartyID, OrderedAmount, Price,...). The combobox is filled with products (with an override function, It shows just the ProductNames).
These products have an ID & a NAME.

Now, If I click on an item in the listview I want the ProductName of that corresponding ProductID to be selected in the combobox.
This has to be done with Binding, but I don't know how.


Anyone has a guess?
Thanks
Thomas

Set the DisplayMember of the control to the name of the property or column of the items you want to display to the user. Set the ValueMember to the name of the property or column you want to use in code. You then bind the data by assigning the list to the DataSource. When the user selects an item, you can get the corresponding data from the SelectedValue property. Likewise, you can set the SelectedValue property to select the item with that data.

After some puzzling, I've managed to make it work.
Thank you so much!
