I have created a databound comobobox - I want to create a order so that what ever item is selected - the Colour of it which is is a different cell is displayed in a textbox.

I.e. i select 'Toy house' from the checkedlistbox - which was created using databounditems
therefore the textbox1 should display 'Blue' which is in the colour cell. There no datagridview table in this form.

I want to make a dynamic formula also
Can anyone help?

What I have tried:

I'm not too sure where to start?

Solution 1

Given the value you want to show is not the value in the textbox. where-ever the data comes from, I'd use a StringDictionary to create a lookup, and set the text based on that.
