SelectedItem not working??? I'm stumped!

[SpeBeeTo]

Hello, I have a C# program I'm working on, and I finally got over a large hurdle, only to encounter the next. :laugh: I finally am able to display an image in my form (Working on a PocketPC), as well as other info that is located in an XML file. The problem is, is that I think the SelectedItem Property isn't syncing with the rest of the items.... Could someone tell me where i'm going wrong? I'd really appreciate input. :) Here it goes: xmlFileName = "\\Program Files\\SmartDeviceApplication1\\fragenkatalog.xml"; xsdFileName = "\\Program Files\\SmartDeviceApplication1\\fragenkatalog.xsd"; FileStream FsXML = new FileStream(xmlFileName,FileMode.Open); FileStream FsXSD = new FileStream(xsdFileName,FileMode.Open); XmlTextReader xtrXSD = new XmlTextReader(FsXSD); fragenkatalogDS.ReadXmlSchema(xtrXSD); xtrXSD.Close(); FsXSD.Close(); XmlTextReader xtrXML = new XmlTextReader(FsXML); fragenkatalogDS.ReadXml(xtrXML); xtrXML.Close(); FsXML.Close(); DataTable dt = fragenkatalogDS.Tables["fragenkatalog"]; ca_id.DataSource = dt; ca_id.DisplayMember = "ca_titel"; string root = "\\Program Files\\SmartDeviceApplication1\\"; DataRowView drv = (DataRowView)ca_id.SelectedItem; ca_bildurl.Image = new Bitmap(System.IO.Path.Combine(root,drv.Row["ca_bildurl1"].ToString())); ca_titel.DataBindings.Add("Text",dt,"ca_titel"); ca_alter.DataBindings.Add("Text",dt,"ca_alter"); ca_sex.DataBindings.Add("Text",dt,"ca_sex"); burl.DataBindings.Add("Text",dt,"ca_bildurl1"); } The problem I've been having (I think) is with this line: DataRowView drv = (DataRowView)ca_id.SelectedItem; It seems as though it's not displaying any other image other than the first one in the database. Any ideas? Thanks a million! Martina

need more code... if your seeing the same result without a crash your probably acessing the parent object in your heirarchy. what control is ca_id ?

Here's my XML code: 4 head ap kopf_ap.jpg 0 999 n And the cs code public ADONETDataBinding() { InitializeComponent(); fragenkatalogDS = new DataSet(); fragenkatalogDS.Locale = CultureInfo.CurrentCulture;string xmlFileName; xmlFileName = "\\Program Files\\SmartDeviceApplication1\\fragenkatalog.xml"; xsdFileName = "\\Program Files\\SmartDeviceApplication1\\fragenkatalog.xsd"; FileStream FsXML = new FileStream(xmlFileName,FileMode.Open); FileStream FsXSD = new FileStream(xsdFileName,FileMode.Open); XmlTextReader xtrXSD = new XmlTextReader(FsXSD); fragenkatalogDS.ReadXmlSchema(xtrXSD); xtrXSD.Close(); FsXSD.Close(); XmlTextReader xtrXML = new XmlTextReader(FsXML); fragenkatalogDS.ReadXml(xtrXML); xtrXML.Close(); FsXML.Close(); DataTable dt = fragenkatalogDS.Tables["fragenkatalog"]; ca_id.DataSource = dt; ca_id.DisplayMember = "ca_titel"; string root = "\\Program Files\\SmartDeviceApplication1\\"; DataRowView drv = (DataRowView)ca_id.SelectedItem; ca_bildurl.Image = new Bitmap(System.IO.Path.Combine(root,drv.Row["ca_bildurl1"].ToString())); ca_titel.DataBindings.Add("Text",dt,"ca_titel"); ca_alter.DataBindings.Add("Text",dt,"ca_alter"); ca_sex.DataBindings.Add("Text",dt,"ca_sex"); burl.DataBindings.Add("Text",dt,"ca_bildurl1"); } /// /// /// Clean up any resources being used. /// protected override void Dispose( bool disposing ) { base.Dispose( disposing ); } Thanks again!

As a side note, (for what it's worth) If I remove the 1st image listed (kopf.jpg) from the directory (i.e. I delete the jpg file), the whole program doesn't work. :S
