Re: Function parameter based on value of another parmeter

The correct method of handling cases like this is to pass an object that correctly maintains its properties. Once the object knows itself and can maintain the internal requirements then the function becomes trivial. Don't use old linear code methods in an object system, It will only make the coding ...

Re: Combobox selection problem with multiple variable elements per line

Adapter objects show up as a linked list of objects. You can query each down the list. I would get the ID and just get the base adapter object which has all adapter properties. Adapter configurations are stored sepaarately, I recommend reviewing both the WMI and the CIM models as there are many good...

You can also easily use an "if" to handle multiple tasks.

Re: Combobox value member from Sql database

What property are you calling the "ValuMemberr". Tat is only availab;e after a change takes place.

Re: Combobox value member from Sql database

Run the "Invoke" at a prompt and inspect the returned objects.
