How to bind a Combo Box to DataSet in code behind, without using XAML

  • 0

How to bind a Combo Box to DataSet in code behind, without using XAML at all:

I tried the following, but all my combobox items are “System.Data.DataRowView” instead of the actual value. What is wrong?

string str = @"SELECT * FROM FooTable";

da.SelectCommand = new SqlCeCommand(str, connection);
da.Fill(devDs, "FooTable");

dt = ds.Tables["FooTable"];

comboBox1.ItemsSource = devDt.DefaultView;

    combobox.DisplayMemberPath = "ColumnName"
