PLEASE HELP!
I'm new to VB.Net (having previously only been familiar with VB6), and am trying the evalution version of Ultimate 2010. I'm having massive trouble with a ComboBox operation. I populate a ComboBox (style: DropDown) with a number of filenames and click on the desired filename to load the file to a RichTextBox. I then pass the focus to the RichTextBox, and restore the ComboBox text back to its default value. The only problem is the default value won't reset - the ComboBox text either remains as the selected filename or if I set SelectedIndex to -1, it is blank.
I've seen people complaining of similar problems on various VB.Net forums, and see that a number of workarounds have been suggested, but I simply can't believe that VB.Net requires an ugly hack for such a simple operation. (It works fine in VB6). Is it a bug?
Grateful for any suggestions. I am so frustrated, at this point I won't be purchasing the programme unless someone can help.
