RadCombobox Selected Value empty

[Eric Bradley]

Hi, We've upgraded our application from RadControls ASP.net Q3 2012 to Q1 2013. We now have a problem with SelectedValue when binding data to the radCombobox. For some reason the SelectedValue isn't set to the first item added. It works fine using Q3 2012 so wondering if you've heard issues.

This issue is what we are experiencing

Thanks

Hello Eric,

 
I have inspect eh the scenario you described but could not observe the unusual behavior. Would you please share the exact code that you use that works fine with Q3 2012 and does not work with Q1 2013 so we could inspect it and be more helpful?

Hi Plamen, Here is the code that we are using. The error is raised at this line "if (int.Parse(rcbStageId.SelectedValue) == 4. For some reason the first record added to rcbStageId isn't set as the selectedValue.

Thanks for your help

<telerik:RadComboBox ID="rcbStageId" runat="server" MarkFirstMatch="True"
    Width="135px" MaxHeight="200px"  AutoPostBack="True"
    meta:resourcekey="rcbStageIdResource1"
    onselectedindexchanged="rcbStageId_SelectedIndexChanged">
   <CollapseAnimation Type="OutQuint" Duration="200"></CollapseAnimation>
</telerik:RadComboBox>

Hello Eric,

 
Thank you for contacting us again and providing the code used.

I have isolated the issue to a sample web page with only a RadComboBox and a Button which is adding an item in it. Unfortunately could not observe any difference in the behavior between the two versions of RadControls.

I am attaching my sample test project. Please review it and let me know if I have to add something else to be able to observe the described issue and be able to help you.
