How EXACTLY are you populating the ComboBox in the first place?

Like below,

myCommand = New SqlCommand("Select * from Details", myConnection)
'executing the command and assigning it to connection
dr = myCommand.ExecuteReader()
While dr.Read()
If Not dr("Style_Name").ToString = "" Then
If ComboBox1.Items.Contains(dr("Style_Name").ToString) = False Then
ComboBox1.Items.Add(dr("Style_Name").ToString)
End If
End If
End While

Are you wanting to save any new items added back to the database, or should they just be for the current session?
