I want to set the value in the combo box so that it displays no text in the
visible portion and it returns a value of -1 for SelectedIndex. I have been
using:

ComboBoxName.SelectedIndex = -1

But this does not always work (sometimes, the selected index after executing
this line of code is actually 0 and therefore, of course, the first item in
the list is displayed.

TIA,
-Carl
