Question

I have a read only combo-box with 5 values in, when the user selects a new value what event should I use to write that value to the registry?

Thanks

Well regardless of what you will end up doing with the value when selected, it is safe to use the SelectionChangeCommitted event.

Here is a little follow up info on this event vs the other commonly used events. (from MSDN)

SelectionChangeCommitted is raised
only when the user changes the combo
box selection. Do not use
SelectedIndexChanged or
SelectedValueChanged to capture user
changes, because those events are also
raised when the selection changes
programmatically.
