Hey

I have a form with som textboxes that uses databinding like this:
The "mysource" contains objects with Number, FirstName and a Type

box1Txt.DataBindings.Add("Text", mysource, "Number");
box2Txt.DataBindings.Add("Text", mysource, "FirstName");

This works find and I'm able to navigate using the
bindingcontext/Bindingmanagerbase.Position.

Next I want to bind the Type property to a combobox which contains "Types"
from another source:

Types = new Types();
myCombobox.BindingContext = new BindingContext();
myCombobox.Sorted = false;
myCombobox.DataSource = empType;
myCombobox.DataBindings.Add("SelectedItem", mysource, "Type");
myCombobox.DisplayMember = "Name";

Well when I now navigate with the bindingcontext in the mysource nothing
happens in the combobox, why not. I want the combobox to match the Type from
the object in mysource.

Try this:

myCombobox.DataSource = empType;
myCombobox.DisplayMember = "Name";
myCombobox.ValueMember = "Type";
myCombobox.DataBindings.Add("SelectedValue", mysource, "Type");
