Set default value for Combo Box

I have a combo box that have a list of values from 1 to 6. How can I set the default value to be 1?

Hi,

Use:

Code:

---

myComboBox.SetCurSel(0); //0 based index of combobox

---

Code:

---

        CString strValue;
        for (int i = 0; i < m_cmbValues.GetCount (); ++i)
        {
                m_cmbValues.GetLBText (i, strValue);
                if (!strValue.CompareNoCase (_T("1")))
                {               
                        m_cmbValues.SetCurSel (i);
                        break;
                }

        }

Instead of searching for the text in the loop (as logan suggested) you could also use CComboBox::FindStringExact method

Well I assumed that the values was 1,2,3,4,5,6 in that order.


If not, do this;

Code:

---

int itemToSelect = combo.FindStringExact(0,_T("3"));
combo.SetCurSel(itemToSelect);

EDIT: VIctor was faster, as usual :)
