Hi,
I did not deal with your main query as I just rushed back from a tennis match and only took a cursory look at the forum before lunch.
First of all, I personally would not use both a Dataset and a DataTable. I would fill the DataTable directly from the Data Adapter.
VB Code:
myDataAdapter.Fill(myTable, "Employees")
With regard to your problem, you cannot reference a value of -1
as
cmbSurname.SelectedIndex
The value -1 is returned when you try to reference an item in a ComboBox with no item selected.
If you want to go to the first entry in the ComboBox use
VB Code:
cmbSurname.SelectedIndex = 0
If you want to view the ValueMember of the Selected item, try
(I edited out this bit as your existing code should now work, once you abandon the -1 bit. You simply use the combo to select an item)
I am a beginner and I have only checked the foregoing once, so forgive me if it needs amending.
