Hello Roya,

Please can you try the following sample. This should demonstrate the SelectedValueChanged event and being able to change the selected value programatically.

Designer File

partial class RadForm1

/// </summary>

/// <param name="disposing">true if managed resources should be disposed; otherwise, false.</param>

protected override void Dispose(bool disposing)

{

if (disposing && (components != null))

{

components.Dispose();

}

base.Dispose(disposing);
