Hello Carol Watson,
Thank you for writing. From what you wrote I understand that you need to populate one combo box with some data but display different data. I am afraid that the data binding mechanism in windows forms does not work this way. Please have a look at the
MSDN articles related to data binding. You should also do some research on the
System.Data namespace as it provides the primary means of storing data, namely the
DataSet,
DataTable,
DataView (the data view allows filtering) and the
TableAdapter classes. The data binding of our controls is not special and it works just as the way it works in the standard Microsoft Windows Forms controls.
Kind regards,
Victor
