Returning selected item from combobox

[starlight849]

Hello,
I am writing a program that is connection to an oracle database using the tableadapter method. I am populating a drop down list with a distinct set of values.
I am then wanting to display the item that user selects in a text box. However, instead of the desired result being displayed the text box is returning system.data.dat arowview.
Any help would be appreciated.

You have to call the .ToString() method to get the value instead of the type.
