List Box from Combo Box

[cratediggah]

Hi,

I have a program w/ a DB backend. What I would like to do is fill a listbox based on the selection of the combo box.

In addition I would like to have two text boxes .text values based on the listbox selection.

I understand it's based on

ProjectList_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ProjectList.SelectedIndexChanged

(ProjectList being my combobox) but not sure how to fill the listbox based on this change.

Thanks

There's no need to handle any events at all. Proper data binding will handle all the control updating for you. I'm not going to say more until you specify which version you're using because the details will be different for each. There are radio buttons provided when you create a thread. Please use them.

Is your listbox databound or are you manually populating it in a loop?

You would need to, rebind a new datasource or repopulate in the loop, passing the new sql query with the combo box selection as part of the where clause to filter the results as your user selected

In the SelectedIndexChanged event of the ComboBox, you need to connect to the database and query for data that match whatever the combobox's selected item means.
Once you have the data, just bind it to to the listbox.
