Hello,

I am assigning a radcombobox's datasource property a List(of Person) and then databinding it. I have the Autopost property set to true so when a selection is made it will post back. Unfortunately, the radcombobox's datasource property is nothing when the postback occurs. Is there something I need to do to keep the datasource from being left to nothing? Since I can't attach a zip file I am providing code snippets.

Imports Telerik.Web.UI

Imports System.Linq

Partial Class _Default

Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

Private Sub Page_Load(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

If Not Page.IsPostBack Then

Dim people = {New Person With {.Name = "Craig", .UserId = "Wil1"}, New Person With {.Name = "Kaitlyn", .UserId = "Wil2"}, New Person With {.Name = "Ben", .UserId = "Wil3"}}.ToList

radCbo.DataTextField = "Name" : radCbo.DataValueField = "UserId"

radCbo.DataSource = people

radCbo.DataBind()

End If

End Sub

Private Sub radCbo_SelectedIndexChanged(sender As Object, e As Telerik.Web.UI.RadComboBoxSelectedIndexChangedEventArgs) Handles radCbo.SelectedIndexChanged

Dim ds = radCbo.DataSource

Dim i = radCbo.SelectedItem.DataItem

End Sub

End Class

Public Class Person

Public Property Name As String

Public Property UserId As String

End Class
