Body
First of all, add a Form_Load Event and put your code in the handler. (use constructor for property initialization and other variable initialization) <pre><code>private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { this.comboBox1.SelectedItem= 5; // This will set the combo box to index 5 string cpuCount = this.comboBox1.SelectedText; // This will get the text of the selected item } </code></pre> so you get the value of item at index 5 in <code>cpuCount</code> variable. The <code>selected</code> clause gives you the values AFTER you have selected something, by default(when you run your app) there is nothing selected in the comoboBox, hence, it displays the value as null, after selecting the item you can use the combobox's selectedItem, selectedIndex, selectedText and selectedValue properties. You can also use databinding to display items in the combobox, which in my view is a better way then adding the items manually. to databind your combobox you can use, <pre><code>// Bind your combobox to a datasource, datasource can be a from a database table, List, Dataset, etc.. IDictionary<int, string> comboDictionary = new Dictionary<int, string>(); comboDictionary.Add(1, "first"); comboDictionary.Add(2, "second"); comboDictionary.Add(3, "third"); comboBox1.DataSource = comboDictionary; comboBox1.DisplayMember = "Key"; comboBox1.ValueMember = "Value"; // </code></pre> And here now you can use combobox1.SelectedIndex to go through the item collection in the datasource :) and it will give you the value against your keys when you use combobox1.SelectedValue. Hope this helps.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
