Set selected value in code behind

[Saeid Kdaimati]

Hi,

Just trying to set the selected value of combobox in code behind, but it is not working out:

RadComboBox1.DataSource = ds.Tables[0];
RadComboBox1.DataTextField = "Text";
RadComboBox1.DataValueField = "ID";
RadComboBox1.DataBind();
if (ds.Tables[1].Rows.Count > 0)
{
  RadComboBox1.SelectedValue = ds.Tables[1].Rows[0]["ID"].ToString();
}

The stored procedure I'm calling return correct data.

Any help??

Hi Saeid,

The code you posted seems to be correct. Please check returned data from the Stored Procedure once again. I'm attaching  a small sample demonstrating how this code works as expected.

All the best,

If you take your example and use Tools -> Generate Local Resource on Default.aspx in design view, SelectedValue has no effect and a blank selection is added at the top of the ComboBox.

Hello,

Thank you for pointing this out. This is a development issue, which I have logged for further investigation.

Hi Rob,

The issue with the creation of the default item when local resources are created will be resolved in Q2.2013 SP1.
