The OnSelectionChangeCommitted that raises the event is protected virtual so it is only accesible in derived classes. Therefore, I think the only way to call that method to raise the event is by your own class the derives from ComboBox:
public class MyComboBox : ComboBox
{
public void RaiseSelectionChangeCommitted()
{
base.OnSelectionChangeCommitted(EventArgs.Empty);
}
}
You can now use the RaiseSelectionChangeCommitted method to call the base method and raise the event. This is probably not advisable and there is probably a better way but it's all I can think of - and it works!

Is List<object> fundametally the same as ArrayList or should I prefer one over the other?

No, but perhaps I should care what some loser that doesn't even know what generics is and can't be bothered to read documentation to learn about it, thinks about my post? Nah, not so much.

The first, is a generic list specifically of type object. the second is a non generic list, written to hold object types.
If you use "object" in the generic one, then yes they are pretty similar. but why are you storing a list of objects? You should create you list with the specific type you want to store
i.e. List<String>
Doing this is wayyyy better than using an ArrayList to hold strings because the generic form enforces type safety, you don't have to cast, and you don't have to write a specific class. (And in the case of value types, prevents boxing)
You can do some reading on generics here:

I cannot tell the type of the data being collected at compile time. It could change based on the situation.

if you're working with pure objects only then I don't think there's a great deal of difference. If not, the generic list is obviuosly far more flexible and much quicker as you can use any type without boxing/unboxing.
As there is no advantage to the ArrayList I never use them. This page[^] (is probably quite old) has a comparison of the two.

For the most part the way you interact with a List<T> and an ArrayList are the same. They provide very similar functionality to the calling code.
Specifically, List<Object> is defining a generic list of type Object so from a data type point of view it is the same as ArrayList since ArrayList can only contain objects.
In general, I think it is preferable to use the generics, particularly if you are working with strong data types (things other than objects) as you are able to get better performance from the generics because you no longer have most (if not all) of the boxing/unboxing operations that need to be performed. That being said, by creating a List<Object>, you probably aren't really gaining a whole lot over an ArrayList.

List<object> and ArrayList are very similar, but there are some implementation differences:
The List<object> methods are not virtual and the List enumerator is a value type, whereas ArrayList requires virtual method calls and needs a heap allocation for the enumerator. So List<object> is a tiny bit faster than ArrayList.
I'd always use List<T>, even if you don't avoid any boxing and don't get any type safety in the List<object> case.

If you're not able to appreciate the difference, use the ArrayList. The other way passes through led mike's suggestion.

The generic List class has practically replaced the ArrayList class. Don't use the ArrayList class any more.
For the rare case where you actually need a list of object references, use List<object> instead of ArrayList. That way it's obvious that you needed exactly that kind of list, and that you are not just using ArrayList because you don't know any better.
Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.

I am trying to create a table in an Access database
I have verified all of my SQL commands work in SQL Server so I'm figuring that i have a formatting for C# issue i am over looking or doing something wrong via the OLDDB driver
here is my code
String connect = "Provider=Microsoft.JET.OLEDB.4.0;data source=.\\Test.mdb";
OleDbConnection con = new OleDbConnection(connect);
con.Open();
OleDbCommand cmd = con.CreateCommand();
cmd.CommandText = "Create Table GroupPolicy(GUID char(50) NOT NULL Unique, GPONAME char(50), Domain Char(50), Created datetime, Modified datetime, Status char(10))";
try
{
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString());
}
con.Close();
the exception is telling me there is a syntax error
Thanks

Access SQL is NOT EQUAL to SQL Server.
Therefore your test is invalid. Try testing your SQL in the Database you are targeting. That is always the best approach.
Good luck

Thanks, I am trying to figure out what the correct commands are, I see examples all over the internet using the SQL create table command on a Access using OLEDB, but everything i try does not work.

Hi!
I am currently working on a project, where I have to make an API assembly to our main functionality.
The issue is that i'm in fact making two assemblies one, which is comon and one which intented as the assembly, which should expose the API functions to our customers. If I try to use the API assembly my common assembly is also required for the client program which is using my API assembly in order to compile, even though I have no direct referances to the common assembly are thiere any way that I can get around this so that I do not have to referance the common assembly in by client program ?
Many thanks in advance.
Kind regards
Jakob

Well I will try to clarify. I have two assemblies, which makes up my api and I will like to keep that way and I only want to expose one of the assemblies to my custormers. So that they in principle only have worry about one of the assemblies and referance only one assembly in there client programs.
I hope this clarifies the problem.
Kind regards
