Or, if you didn't want to get into the "I" interfaces, you could do it simply like this. This is still data binding, but more of a programmatic hardcoding approach. Sorry, and thank goodness, this isn't .NET, but the comboBox does have a selectedIndex property. BTW, all of this info is in the help docs. ;)
