I'm loopiing through a datagridview and I want to get the selected value in a combobox, not the bound column's value. (I'm putting the contents of the dgv on a Word document.)

Code:
For icounter = 0 To Me.ConversationTblDataGridView.RowCount - 1    
range.Text = range.Text & Me.ConversationTblDataGridView.Rows(icounter).Cells("PersonID").Value    <--  I want to change "Value" so I get the displayed value, not the person's id
range.Text = range.Text & CHR(13)    
Next icounter
It will not take .DisplayMember or .SelectedItem and .Selected returns True of False. Can anyone tell me how to get the name that shows in the combo box instead of the id number?
