Hi Mike

Thank You for the prompt response

.Text doesn't really work, it only displays the text value but I want the whole row.  Here is a code snippet.

i bind my control like this

initialize(Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.UltraCombo cboCtrl,...)

{...

cboCtrl.DataSource = oDataset.Tables[0];
cboCtrl.DisplayMember = sDisplayColumn;
cboCtrl.ValueMember = sValueMember;
cboCtrl.AutoEdit = true;

...}

after form is initialized I want to be able to click on a button, say "View", and be able to see the value in cboCtrl ( say 6 columns )

so I do the following

Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.UltraGridRow row = (Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.UltraGridRow)cboCtrl.SelectedRow;

but unless user specifically clicks on ultraCombo I keep getting an exception.

Please Help

Regards
