Forums » Elegant Ribbon Tech Support » Combobox and SelectedItem + FindStringExact Collapse All
Subject Author Date

Hello,

I want to select a ComboBoxItem by finding the string in the item. The following code works for the standard windows forms combobox but not with the Elegant Ribbon ComboBox:

ComboBox1.SelectedItem = ComboBox1.Items.Item(ComboBox1.FindStringExact("ItemtoFind"))

It always selects the first item. Does FindStringExact work with the Elegant Ribbon ComboBox?

Thank you

We are sorry but we failed to reproduce this bug. We added several items to the combo box and used the following code:

comboBox1.SelectedItem = comboBox1.Items[comboBox1.FindStringExact("Item 5")];
Item 5 was successfully selected. Would you send us a test project that reproduces the problem? Thank you.

Thank you for your reply
I found the error now....there was a "ComboBox1.SelectedIndex = 0" somewhere in the code. Now it works perfectly!

Best regards,
