If I am understanding right... comboBox1.DataSource= dataset.Tables["whatever"] comboBox1DisplayMember= "Column Name" comboBox1.ValueMember= "Value column name"; As far as a search you could get the item selected and use that as a value in your SELECT or Stored Proc. string whatever= comboBox1.SelectedValue.ToString(); There are many ways in which you could use a comboBox for a search tool
