Combobox Question

[ooOOJaVaOOoo]

Just something basic. How do I get a combobox to have text already displayed when the form loads?

The comboboxes are created at run-time and have options loaded into them from a database

I've tried:
cmbQuestions(x).Text = qID(x)
cmbQuestions(x).SelectedText = qID(x)
cmbQuestions(x).SelectedItem = qID(x)

everytime the form loads the comboboxes have the options in them but nothing default to see (default - what i made earlier from another screen)

An example

ComboBox1.Items.Add("Test")
ComboBox1.SelectedItem = "Test"

You can also set the SelectedIndex property... Just make sure you don't accidentally set it out of bound

For i As Integer = 0 To 4
            'Add 5 items to the combobox
            ComboBox1.Items.Add("Item" & i.ToString())
        Next
        'Select the 2nd item
        ComboBox1.SelectedIndex = 1
