One of the simple Way is given below ... just see if works for yo
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Loa
'The connection string Refers to Northwind database and the Table is customers
Dim intItemCount As Intege
Tr
SqlDataAdapter1.Fill(DataSet1
ComboBox1.DataSource = DataSet1.Tables(0
intItemCount = DataSet1.Tables(0).Rows.Coun
'****************
'If the Combobox has no datasource but you have added the Items through code then
'intItemCount = ComboBox1.Items.Coun
'**************
ComboBox1.DisplayMember = "CustomerID
ComboBox1.ValueMember = "ContactName
'Code to Verify if the last Item is selecte
'If DataSet1.Tables(0).Rows(intItemCount - 1).Item("ContactName") = ComboBox1.Text The
' MessageBox.Show("Last item selected"
'End I
Catch exc As Exceptio
MessageBox.Show(exc.Message
End Tr
End Su
The Other more sophisticated Way is the get the selected index and the cont through the use of Binding context
