ASPxComboBox - How to set the selected item?

Question

I use: ASPxComboBox

The problem is how to set selectedValue from the code behind ? If my HTML is like this:

<dxe:ASPxComboBox ID="cbxJobType" runat="server" width="200px" MaxLength="50"> <Items> <dxe:ListEditItem Text="Contract" Value="0" /> <dxe:ListEditItem Text="Full Time" Value="1" /> <dxe:ListEditItem Text="Part Time" Value="2" /> </Items> <ValidationSettings ErrorDisplayMode="ImageWithTooltip"> <RequiredField ErrorText="Required Value" IsRequired="True" /> </ValidationSettings> </dxe:ASPxComboBox> 

Answer 1

Client side Script

Grant the ClientInstanceName property for comboBoxto access to its client side and the ID property as cbxJobType for access to the management server side.

  // by text comboBox.SetText('Text #2'); // by value comboBox.SetValue('Value #2'); // by index comboBox.SetSelectedIndex(1); 

Server side code

 // by text cbxJobType.Text = "Text #2"; // by value cbxJobType.Value = "Value #2"; // by index cbxJobType.SelectedIndex = 1; 

This code works fine:

 cbxJobType.SelectedItem = cbxJobType.Items.FindByValue("Value #2"); 

Answer 2

You can:

• Set property ASPxComboBox.SelectedIndex ;

• Select the required item by its value using the ASPxComboBox.Value property:

Code for:

 cbxJobType.SelectedIndex = 0; //or cbxJobType.Value = "0"; 

Answer 3

On the client side, I found that there is the equivalent of a Ruchi offer:

cbxJobType.SelectedItem = cbxJobType.Items.FindByValue ("Value # 2");

What is:

 cbxJobType.SetSelectedItem(cbxJobType.FindItemByValue("Value #2")); // or cbxJobType.SetSelectedItem(cbxJobType.FindItemByText("Text #2")); 

Go here to learn more about ASPxComboBox on the client side (ASPxClientComboBox).

Go here to learn more about server side ASPxComboBox.

You can also see the following

 cbxJobType.SelectedIndex = cbxJobType.Items.IndexOf(cbxJobType.Items.FindByValue("Value"));
