Selected Item is always the type of item

[Hiram]

Hello

I am filling a the items of the RadComboBox in the code behind.

            foreach (LJSDataSet.LJ_DBRow row in dbNew.LJ_DB.Rows)
            {
                StackPanel pan = new StackPanel();
                TextBlock tb1 = new TextBlock();
                TextBlock tb2 = new TextBlock();

                tb1.Width = 130;
                tb1.Text = row.DBNAME;

                tb2.Width = 90;
                tb2.Text = row.DBSERV;

                pan.Orientation = Orientation.Horizontal;
                pan.Children.Add(tb1);
                pan.Children.Add(tb2);

                this.comboDB.Items.Add(pan);
            }

When I compile the project, the combobox items are displayed as expected. But the SeletedItem always shows the type name
System.Windows.Contols.StackPanel.

How can I avoid this?

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

I would strongly recommend providing the dbNew.LJ_DB.Rows collection as ItemsSource of RadComboBox and using the ItemTemplate property to specify the look of the combo items. You could find a similar example here:
