Why is this weirdness needed?

Group: Forum Members Posts: 2K, Visits: 6.6K	I pulled this code form the code that loads a combo/list from an enum (I think). There is mention of some .NET weirdness that requires this. I'm wondering if you could shed a bit of light on why this is done? (Setting the display member and value member to ZLS, then to their actual values, then setting datasource, then setting them again!) Private Sub SetDataSource(ByVal combo As SF.ComboBox _ , ByVal DataSource As Object _ , ByVal DisplayMember As String _ , ByVal ValueMember As String) combo.BeginUpdate() combo.DataSource = Nothing combo.DisplayMember = String.Empty combo.ValueMember = String.Empty combo.DisplayMember = DisplayMember combo.ValueMember = ValueMember combo.DataSource = DataSource combo.DisplayMember = DisplayMember combo.ValueMember = ValueMember combo.EndUpdate() End Sub
