[Solved] Bind SelectedText

[jfkrueger]

Hopefully this is a very easy one. How do I set the selected text property declaritively with the bind syntax? I do not want selectedvalue, i need to use SelectedText or the Telerik equivalent?

This does not work and there is no "SelectedText" property:

<telerik:RadComboBox ID="rcbCategory" runat="server"
     DataSourceID="odsCategories" DataTextField="Category"
     DataValueField="CategoryID" Width="75px"
     ShowDropDownOnTextboxClick="true"
     Height="150px" Text='<%# Bind("CategoryName") %>'>
</telerik:RadComboBox>

Thanks!

Hello Joe,

You need to set the AllowCustomText property to true in order to be able to set the Text property of RadComboBox.
