SelectedItem/SelectedIndex in DropDown ComboBox

[O.B.]

I have a ComboBox as a DropDown list. The following code is executed
in the form's constructor.

dropDownComboBo x.Items.Add("AL L");

The following does nothing.

dropDownComboBo x.SelectedItem = 0;

The following also does nothing.

dropDownComboBo x.SelectedIndex = 0;

Help?

try
dropDownComboBo x.ClearSelectio n();
dropDownComboBo x.Items[0].Selected = true;
