    Data related question

    I'll try and make this as clear as mud. I have a Windows form with details
    and a DataGridView connected to an Access database. I have just learned how
    to control which cells in the DataGridView have been modified so I can
    perform an action when the particular cell is modified. What I have is a
    DataGridView column with a ComboBox but when that combobox has a selected
    value, I want the textbox next to it to display a value from the database
    based on my SELECT statement.

    My SELECT statement is as follows:
    SELECT ProductDescript ion, ProductID
    FROM Products
    WHERE (ProductIDNumbe r = ?)

    I guess what I want to know is how would I assign the ProductDescript ion and
    ProductID to variables and not... say a text box. My stupid workaround now
    is bind textboxes to the 2 fields, grab the text property then use it in a
    variable. The textboxes visible property is set to false on the form.

    Is there a better way to code this? I've always been more of a drag and
    drop type of person so the more detailed code the better I'll understand.

    Thank you,
    Tony
