I am trying to get the selected text from a UltraComboEditor with the SelcetedText property however it is throwing an InvalideOperationException with the message:
"Can't access SelectedText unless Editor is in edit mode."
I'm not sure what this means nor do I know what it means to be in edit mode.
Wow, brain fart on my part. I knew that already... thanks for the clarification.
SelectedText is the portion of text which is selected (highlighted) in the text portion of the control. This is the same as SelectedText in a Textbox control. So it only applies when the control has focus (is in edit mode).
I suspect you probably want the Text of the selected item on the list, in which case, you should just be using the Text property of the control, not SelectedText.
The version of control I am using is 8.3.
