Hi all. I am a little confused regarding lists and combo box's I guess. I looked at the tutorial and but I don't see how you "get" the values from the selected record from the list or combo box. I have a combo box set up on my custom password form with two columns, FullName and ID: {0},{1} respectivly. Now, the value I need to retrieve is the ID value. I tried placing some code in the events SelectedIndexChanged with no joy. I'm not sure of the arguments to use to get my value. Can someone please help me. ID is an Integer.



The second part: What I'm trying to do is, after getting the ID number is send that number to my function and have the funtion run a select to get the employee record and return to me the password. I will then assign it to my var EmpPW as seen below. cboFullName is the name of the Combobox and I'm guessing at .ValueMember



Am I wrong or right? If incorrect then how do I do this?



My code to send to my Function is: EmpPW = Me.EmployeeBO1.GetEmpoyeeByID(txtFullName.ValueMember.



Thanks in advance
