I was just starting to learn how to use classes today and I think I might have a vague handle on them.Anyways, I was using a class to generate troops (as objects, since I needed various statistics tied to each individual one) in an army for sort of a basic medieval-type game I was creating and adding them to a combo box.It all works perfect and the index holds my object and I can call data from it, etc., my only issue is with the aesthetics of my result.All of the troops I add to the combo box as objects appear in the dropdown list as "WarProject.Soldier", the name of the object. This is obviously not something an end-user would understand or want to see. I have no idea how to change what an object appears as in the combo box.

View 8 RepliesSo I've looked at some of the posts on updating the combo box and none of the methods seem to work for me.
I have two forms I will refer to as Parent, Child. The Parent form contains a combo box of Business names from my database. The Child form adds a Business to my database. After I exit the Child form I want the combo box on the Parent form to update with the new business.
Also I created the combo box by click-dragging the Business table from my Data Sources window to my form.

I have been using the combo Box keypress event to capture the enter key when it is being pressed by the user within the combobox. The combo box style I am using is Drop Down. When there are no items in the combo box list the keypress event will capture the enter key. When I add any items to the list portion of the combo box the keypress event not longer captures the enter key. How do I capture the enter key when the combo box has items in its list.

View 1 RepliesThe user will click the book name in the combo box.
Note: The combo box is separate from datagridview . It is not part of datagridview columns.
Then the datagridview for Issuing books i.e. with the columns bid,bname,aname,data of issue,date of return should be displayed.
The row that will be displayed in datagridview is such that the bookname selected by user in the combo box should match with bname row .
On the same datagridview there will be button with name "Issue" so once it is clicked then this whole data of datagridview should get stored in the database table name "Issue" and get deleted from the databse table name "MBA"
