Combobox IndexOf

[Barry Wood]

Hi

I often use the Value pairs in a combo box, and easily get the ‘value’ from the current index. I have also used the IndexOf to check if a certain item is in the list, but that checks the Name side not the Value side.

Is there a way to check if an item is in the Value side of a combobox?

Hi Barry,

You can use the Values string list and use the IndexOf method on that to get the index of the item that contains the value you are looking for.

procedure TForm25.RzButton1Click(Sender: TObject);
var
  Idx: Integer;
begin
  Idx := RzComboBox1.Values.IndexOf( 'SomeValue' );
  RzComboBox1.ItemIndex := Idx;
end;
