Good morning everybody,

I’d like to bind a combox to a ProdData array.  
I want to have all the String data which are the first position in my list in the ComboBox list.  
How can I do this ?

Thank you

AFAIK it’s not possible without custom .net component.

Hello everybody,

this is my mistake !

I extracted the string value of my ProdData array, and put it in a string array, and finally use a Listbox bound to a string array.

It works.
