public:
 property System::String ^ ValueMember { System::String ^ get(); void set(System::String ^ value); };

public string ValueMember { get; set; }

member this.ValueMember : string with get, set

Public Property ValueMember As String

Property Value

String

A String representing a single property name of the DataSource property value, or a hierarchy of period-delimited property names that resolves to a property name of the final data-bound object. The default is an empty string ("").

Exceptions

ArgumentException

The specified property path cannot be resolved through the object specified by the DataSource property.

Examples

The following code example shows loading the data into an ArrayList and setting the ValueMember to a property of the object in the list.

Remarks

Specify the contents of the ValueMember property in cases where you bind data.

You can clear the ValueMember property by setting the property to an empty string ("") or null.

Setting a new ValueMember property raises the ValueMemberChanged and SelectedValueChanged events.
