Question

Hi

I get this error when i try to assign the content of a combobox item to a string

comboyear is a combobox

dim  title as string
title = comboyear.items(comboyear.SelectedIndex).content 

Thanks

Hi, comboyear.items(comboyear.SelectedIndex) gets you an object. Object hasn't property content. You should cast comboyear.items(comboyear.SelectedIndex) to typ of item. If you bind ItemsSource to List(Of Data) you must cast to Data like this:

 dim  title as string
 title = ctype(comboyear.items(comboyear.SelectedIndex), Data).content 

In this case your class Data must have property "content".
