Question

I’m trying to populate a combobox from a dataset with only specific rows, this is my code:

comboBox2.DataSource = glObalDataSet.Tables["JOBURI"].Select(
               "CONT = '" + comboBox1.SelectedValue.ToString() + "'");

The dataset works fine, it is populated, can someone show me where i’m doing wrong?

Answer 1

Use DataView to filter the result.

DataView dv=glObalDataSet.Tables["JOBURI"].DefaultView;
dv.RowFilter="CONT = '" + comboBox1.SelectedValue.ToString() + "'";
comboBox2.DataSource=dv;
comboBox2.DisplayMember="JOB";
comboBox2.ValueMember="ID";

You need to set Display and Value member property of Combobox control.
