With the following code the combobox cbAdditionalFields is not holding the selected value in SelectedItem property. How to get the selected item property of the combobox? and on selection changed not focus
var userFields = recordType.UserFields.Where(u => u.Format == UserFieldFormats.String); cbAdditionalFields.DataSource = userFields.ToList(); cbAdditionalFields.DisplayMember = "Name"; This might do the trick for you
private void cbAdditionalFields_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e) { // ... Get the ComboBox. var comboBox = sender as ComboBox; //string value = comboBox.SelectedItem as string; UserField value = comboBox.SelectedItem as UserField; Console.WriteLine(value.Name); } Now value contains the currently selected item in the ComboBox.
you can solve this issue by setting the selected index or selected value property of the ComboBox. cb.selectedIndex = 0;
