Access to other fields on record selected through combo box

[Don]

I need to be able to access other fields on the same record that was just selected through the combo box - in the code behind is where I want to access the other fields.  I have a record - an employee record, the fields are first name, last name, phone number, address, dob, and email address.  The combo box displays and I selected the record by last name - after selecting the record by last name, i want to display the address on the screen.  ( I am using C# mostly, an explanation in either C# or VB would be great).

Thanks in advance.

Hello Don,

I can suggest you to use the Attributes collection of the RadComboBoxItem, where you could store the needed fields from the DataSource. Here you could find our demo, where a similar functionality is implemented. In the source code of the demo it is demonstrated how you could store several fields from the DataSource in the Attributes and display them when needed.


All the best,
