Get the combobox text in C#

Question

I filled up a combobox with the values from an Enum.

Now a combobox is text right? So I\'m using a getter and a setter. I\'m having problems reading the text.

Answer 1

Try this. this worked for me.

string selectedText = this.ComboBox.GetItemText(this.ComboBox.SelectedItem);

The GetItemText method analyzes the item and returns the text of the bound to that item.
