Question

i want to fill a combobox with data from the database when the page load
I had written the code as below

private void QuotationForm_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            MessageBox.Show("hghjgvhg");
            comboboxload();
        }




 public void comboboxload()
        {

            OleDbConnection oleDbConnection1 = new System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection(connString);
            oleDbConnection1.Open();
            OleDbCommand oleDbCommand1 = new System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand("Select jobpk,jobecode from  jobcodemastertable",oleDbConnection1);
            OleDbDataReader reader = oleDbCommand1.ExecuteReader();
            DataTable dt = new DataTable();
            dt.Columns.Add("jobpk", typeof(int));
            dt.Columns.Add("jobcode", typeof(string));
            dt.Load(reader);
            cmbjobcode.ValueMember = "jobpk";
            cmbjobcode.DisplayMember = "jobcode";
            cmbjobcode.DataSource = dt;
            oleDbConnection1.Close();  
        }

it doesnot deturns an error or exception but doesnot load the combobox with data values

You may need to bind datatable’s view with combo box

cmbjobcode.DataSource = dt.DefaultView;
