UltraComboEditor Defaulting to 0
posted

I am using an UltraComboEditor

The UltraComboEditor is linked to a List<> where the DisplayMember is set to "Description" and the ValueMember is Set to "ID"

the ID is an integer and is stored in the relevant field on the table.

the UltraComboEditor is Styled as a DropDown, Autocompletemode = Suggest, AutosuggestFilterMode = Contains, Limit to List = true.

my problem is that when my form is initialised to edit a new record, where the value for the combo box has not yet been set the text of the combobox has defaulted to "0"

This is a pain as and "0" is not in the List and when the user starts to type, they have to delete the "0"

As a work around I set the UltraComboEditor.Text = "" where UltraComboEditor.Text = "0" in the Value_Changed Event,  (though this will not work if an entry in the list begins with "0"!)

How can I get the UltraComboEditor to initialise to "" (string.empty) instead of "0"?
