I'm having issues trying to clear the text from a combo box when I am using dropdownlist comboboxstyle. &nbsp;<br />

Here is what I'm trying to do: &nbsp;this works in my test app, but not in my real app. &nbsp;I have EnabledVisualStyles in both apps:<br />
<br />
Dim style As ComboBoxStyle = cmb.DropDownStyle<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;cmb.DropDownStyle = ComboBoxStyle.DropDown<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; cmb.SelectedItem = Nothing<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; cmb.Text = &quot;&quot;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; cmb.Focus()<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; cmb.DropDownStyle = style<br />
<br />
This code works in one app, but not the other. &nbsp;in the non-working app, the cmb.Text and cmb.SelectedItem fields are properly set to &quot;&quot;&nbsp;and nothing respectively, but when calling cmb.DropDownstyle = style, the text and selected item change back to their previously held values. &nbsp;

I'm having issues trying to clear the text from a combo box when I am using dropdownlist comboboxstyle.  

Here is what I'm trying to do:  this works in my test app, but not in my real app.  I have EnabledVisualStyles in both apps:

Dim style As ComboBoxStyle = cmb.DropDownStyle
             cmb.DropDownStyle = ComboBoxStyle.DropDown
                cmb.SelectedItem = Nothing
                cmb.Text = ""
                cmb.Focus()
                cmb.DropDownStyle = style

This code works in one app, but not the other.  in the non-working app, the cmb.Text and cmb.SelectedItem fields are properly set to "" and nothing respectively, but when calling cmb.DropDownstyle = style, the text and selected item change back to their previously held values.  

Problem trying to clear text from combo box in dropdownlist mode

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
