Filling ListBox with data

[s_alexander04]

Hello!

How to fill ListBox with data using DataSource, DisplayMember,
ValueMember members of ListBox?
I have DataSet and want to fill ListBox from particular table of the
DataSet.

You haven't said what language you are using but something like this would
be used in VB

ListBox1.DataSource = ds.Tables("tablename")

(or this in C#)

listBox1.DataSource = ds.Tables["tablename"];

;-)

But how will listBox1 know which column to show?

Because you'l set the DisplayMember to the column name you want to show.

thank you

Obvious but not from help page for ListControl.DisplayMember in MSDN
and from the example on that page.
