Work with a data bound ComboBox and DataGridView

Question

I have three tables. One has two columns of which one column is bound with a ComboBox. Other two tables are bound with two separate DataGridViews but are related to the first table so that they both have a secondary key which matches up with the ID column(first column) of the first table(so that rows displayed in DataGridViews have the same secondary key value as the ID of the first table row currently selected). This works by using the menu generated by Visual Studio itself with the other components but I want this functionality in the ComboBox so that when I select an item from it, the corresponding rows should be displayed in the DataGridViews. How do I do it?
Thanks in advance.

Solution 1

Handle the onchange event of the combobox (events are listed on the tab in the properties window)
Get the selected item from the combobox
Apply a filter to the collection populating the DGVs.

Solution 2

Handle the onChange event of ComboBox and get the selected id and value of Combo Box. Now pass this id to your function for filtering the record at last bind the combo box with ur function.
