combobox and dropdownitems

[CICCIOLO69]

Hi, I'm trying to add a sub menu as a combobox filled by a dataset. Adding as main menu item it works, as a submenu not. Here is the code. Dim dsCBO As New DataSet Dim GiacCBO As New ToolStripComboBox Dim strSQL As String = "select item_id,descr from items;" Dim strConn As String = Me.SQLConnString Dim daLookups As New SqlDataAdapter(strSQL, strConn) Try daLookups.Fill(dsCBO) With dsCBO .Tables(0).TableName = "Item" End With Catch excFill As Exception End Try With GiacCBO .ComboBox.DataSource = dsCBO.Tables("Item") .ComboBox.DisplayMember = "descr" .ComboBox.ValueMember = "item_id" End With AddHandler GiacCBO.SelectedIndexChanged, AddressOf GiacCBO_SelectedIndexChanged GiacenzaArticoloToolStripMenuItem.DropDownItems.Add(GiacCBO) The combobox is still empty ?!?! Substituting the last code row with: MenuStrip1.Items.Add(GiacCBO) the GiacCBO object show all records of the dsCBO. What's wrong ?

listen, i don´t know if that code is correct, but i think you want to fill combobox with data from table (id_user,user_name). i don´t know vb but that stuff is really simple if you needed in c# code?! did you triggered it (form_load event) so if fill combobox when page loads? :doh:
