WebCombo databinding
posted

I'm able to bind the WebCombo control to a datasource so it shows the list of values in the dropdown, but I can't figure out how to bind it to another datasource that will have the selected value.  In the MS DropDownList, there's a SelectedValue property that can be bound, what's the equivalent for the WebCombo?  I've tried using DisplayValue but get an error that Bind/Eval "can only be used in the context of a databound control".

    Nathan,

    You can use something like this:

    this.webCombo.Rows.FromKey("1").Selected = true; //if you want to select the row with Id=1

     In the InitializeRow event you must set the key:
    protected void webCombo_InitializeRow(object sender, Infragistics.WebUI.UltraWebGrid.RowEventArgs e)
    {
                e.Row.Key = e.Row.Cells.FromKey("Id").Text;
    }

     I hope it help.
