The following code snippets are in VB.NET:

Question 1:
I have 2 combobox that get filled from the same datasource as follow:

cboParent1Type.DataSource = dsGeneralStuff.Tables("ParentTypes")
cboParent1Type.DisplayMember = "Description"
cboParent1Type.ValueMember = "ID"

cboParent2Type.DataSource = dsGeneralStuff.Tables("ParentTypes")
cboParent2Type.DisplayMember = "Description"
cboParent2Type.ValueMember = "ID"

Their SelectedValue property is bound to another datatable.

The problem is, when I select a value in Combobox #1, Combobox #2 also gets
that value selected by itself.  Obviously, it's not what I'm looking to do.
How can I "separate" each combobox even if their source is the same?



Question 2:

I am trying to change the forecolor of a groupbox that its FlatSyle is set
to System but it does not seem to work.  When set to System, the text is
blue but when set to Standard or Flat, it is black.  I want to have it black
when FlatStyle = System (just like all my other controls).

What am I doing wrong?



Thanks in advance!

Carl
