My question is how do I get my combo editor to NOT select the item in the list by simply typing the ID value in the combo editor? I have a combo editor set to suggest append. The display member is set to the title value (a string) and the value is set to the id value (an integer value). Currently if the user types in the number 1 then the combo editor shows the title value for the item whose id value is 1. Is there a way that I can turn this feature off? I would like the user to get a message that the item does not exist in the list instead.
Thanks.
Hi,
There's a lengthy discussion of this issue, why it happens, and how to work around it here:
Ultra Combo - ItemNotInList event - Infragistics Community
I checked out the sample project that you created in this example and I was going to try this in my solution except that the control you used here was a UltraCombo and I am using UltraComboEditor. Is there another property besides the EventManager that I can use to disable the ValueChanged event for the UltraComboEditor control? The EventManager does not exist of the UltraComboEditor control.
Hm. Well, if there is no EventManager, then you have a couple of options.
