Maybe that because there is already items in the combo, so Try to add the value you want to the combo first

ComboBox.Items.Add(ds.tables(0).rows(0).item(0))
ComboBox.Text = ds.tables(0).rows(0).item(0)

Thank you all for your response.

I had found t hi s code which is very short 3 lines if you remove the first 3 lines which are for explanatory purpose

Dim SearchFor, SearchIn As String
SearchIn = "She sells sea shells on the sea shore"
SearchFor = "sea"
Dim rex As System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex = New System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex(SearchFor)
Dim count As Integer = rex.Matches(SearchIn).Count
MessageBox.Show(SearchFor & " occurs " & count & " times")
Comatose commented: Great Find +8

Dim dr As DataRow
Dim dt As DataTable
Dim ds As DataSet
ds = DataSet2
dt = ds.Tables("firm")
dr = dt.NewRow()
dr.Item("f_num") = 9999
dr.Item("f_name") = "samir" 'txt_FarmName.Text
dr.Item("f_floor") = 10 'Val(txt_FloorCnt.Text)
dr.Item("f_type") = "C" ' Left (com_CusType.Text, 1)
ds.Tables("firm").Rows.Add(dr)

as I am reading from an example? there is a line da.Update(ds, "Firm")

Where Is the DataAdapter in my case?

I am using this example from here http://www.homeandlearn.co.uk/NET/nets12p10.html

TIA

Dim swFile As System.IO.StreamWriter
swFile = System.IO.File.CreateText("c:\myfile.txt")
swFile.Write("MyText")
swFile.Close()

Dim srFile As System.IO.StreamReader
Dim sTextRead As String
srFile = System.IO.File.OpenText("c:\myfile.txt")
sTextRead = srFile.Read()
Debug.Print(sTextRead)
srFile.Close()

This is not exactly what you want, but it will give you an idea.

ps: if someone see's that there is better code or my code is not correct or lack please point to it because I am still learning :)

Hi Dnx

I had tried that, and I tried to change the backcolor in the Enter Event Me.BackColor = Color.White It didn't work either.

Does it work at your side?
