You should create a struct which can hold your product info like this:

C#

struct Product
       {
           public string Name;
           public int ProductID;
       }

Then you can create a list of your product like this

C#

List<Product> products = new List<Product>(){new Product () {Name="a", ProductID=1}, new Product(){Name="b", ProductID=2}};
           comboProducts.DataSource = products;
           comboProducts.DisplayMember = "Name";
           comboProducts.ValueMember = "ProductID";

Hope this helps

use like that

cmbFiles.DisplayMember = "ProductName";
cmbFiles.ValueMember = "productID";
cmbFiles.DataSource = lstProduct
