Combobox & Textbox - plz help quickly..

[mistaken_myst]

Hello, can we listen to events in vb.net? if yes, help plz - That is:

Whenever I choose a value from my combobox, I generate a value into a Textbox (according to the value from the combobox).

How can I do this whenever the combobox value is changed? (meaning each time its state changes?)

can't you use

combobox.selecteditem

?

What value do you want the text box to display? The selected index, the selected item, the selected text, the selected value?

' display the selected index of the comboBox
textBox1.text = comboBox1.selectedIndex
' display the selected item
TextBox1.text = comboBox1.selectedItem

sory, I wrongly explained myself ..- & this was found not as urgent as something else I was doing in the mean time..

Anyway... How can I prevent the user from entering a custom Text & limit him to the cbo list?
