Hi, I am creating a c# win form application.
I have 2 comboboxes.
One named suppliercombobox, the other named contactcombobox.
In my C# application I have a sql database linked in.
1 Supplier can have many contacts, one contact can only work for one supplier.
Below is the code which puts the values in the combobox suppliercombobox:
This code is called on the page load event, and works fine.
My code to put the values in the contact combo box is:
This code called when the text changes in the supplier combo box. Initially it will load the contacts for the correct supplier, but if I change the supplier again, the contact combo box will display the contacts from BOTH of the suppliers.
I have tried using dt.rows.clear(); and dt.clear(); in various places.
I would like to know how to get the contact combo box working as I descibed (to only show the contacts from the selected supplier).
I would also like to know how to display both the contacts firstname and surname in the combo drop down box.
I am very new to c# so unsure if I am approaching this correctly, please ask if you need to know anything else, any help is greatly appreiciated, I've been stuck on this a while now.
Many Thanks

Below is the code which puts the values in the combobox suppliercombobox:
con.Open(); SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM tblsupplier", con); DataTable dt = new DataTable(); da.Fill(dt); for (int i = 0; i < dt.Rows.Count; i++) { SupplierComboBox.Items.Add(dt.Rows[i]["SupplierNam e"]); } con.Close(); }
This code is called on the page load event, and works fine.
My code to put the values in the contact combo box is:
con.Open(); string supid = SupplierComboBox.SelectedIndex.ToString(); MessageBox.Show(supid); SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM tblsuppliercontact WHERE supplierid= '"+ supid +"'", con); DataTable dt = new DataTable(); dt.Rows.Clear(); dt.Clear(); da.Fill(dt); for (int i = 0; i < dt.Rows.Count; i++) // put a breakpoint here and look at the table it the datatable, it is the correct data but is not showing correclty in the listbox. { ContactcomboBox.Items.Add(dt.Rows[i]["ContactFirst Name"]); } da = null; dt.Rows.Clear(); con.Close();
