I am making web application using C#.NET and SQL SERVER.
I have displayed the data which is stored in SQL SERVER.
Now the problem is data which is already in SQL should get only displayed just like read only, user should not add its own data in that combo box.
I have following code which is working properly.
What else should i do?

private void cbomedia_MouseClick(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
        {


                SqlDataAdapter adp = new SqlDataAdapter("select *from Media_Method", "Data Source=SW-PC-20;Initial Catalog=PSM;Integrated Security=True");
                DataSet ds = new DataSet();


                adp.Fill(ds);

                cbomedia.DataSource = ds.Tables[0];
                cbomedia.DisplayMember = "Media_method_ID";

            }

or
Am I skipping any property?

RAJI: I think you mistyped. This property should be set as DropDownList.

Hi,

If its a windows application then need to set property of combobox as

cmbBox.DropDownStyle = System.Windows.Forms.ComboBoxStyle.DropDownList;

Please try it.
