I have two questions I hope you can help with. How can I display my combobox display default to blank when I have a bound data source. (I need it that way). I have tried combobox.selectedIndex = -1 but doesn't work. Have also added the column of blank manually like this DataRow newemployeesRow = dataSet1.Tables["employees"].NewRow(); newemployeesRow["Fullname"] = ""; newemployeesRow["Fullname"] = -1; dataSet1.Tables["employees"].Rows.Add(newemployeesRow); It shows a column of -1 in my combobox but it is not set to the default though. the user has to select it. If I remove the combobox.selectedIndex = -1 it displays blank which I want, but it's still not the default. Can someone please help.:wtf:

newemployeesRow["Fullname"] = ""; newemployeesRow["Fullname"] = -1; dataSet1.Tables["employees"].Rows.Add(newemployeesRow); after this try by using this code. dataSet1.AcceptChanges();

This unfortunately does the same thing as before. It displays -1 in the list instead of a blank, and isn't set as the default anyway. :( ahhhh
