I am using the TreeView in ComboBox from Valeri
http://blogs.telerik.com/valerihristov/posts/09-08-27/treeview_in_combobox_take_3_silverlight_3_wpf_and_radcontrols.aspx

How can I set the selected item programmatically?

I tried
myTreeViewCombo.SelectedTreeViewItem = someItem
and
myTreeViewCombo.SelectedValue = someItem

The item seems to get selected, but the selection does not display in the ComboBox.

Hello Peter,

RadTreeView cannot automatically select items by setting its SelectedItem/Value properties. To select an item you should find it and set its IsSelected property to true.

Hi Peter,

I guess that it would be easier if you put RadTreeView inside a RadDropDownButton:
http://demos.telerik.com/wpf/?Buttons/DropDownButton

This way you will be able to directly reference the TreeView and use it as it is on the page.

Sincerely yours,

Thank you for this good suggestion.

However, with a TreeView in DropDownButton I did not know, how to find the DropDownButton the TreeView belongs too on TreeView.SelectionChanged (I create many DropDownButtons dynamically in code).

Thus I gave up on trees and use 2 ComboBoxes instead.
