I am not understanding the "how to specify the message for each value" of your question. Please explain.

let us say for example you're doing flight reservation system and each flight have different price so when you select flight from NY to LA it would have different price than the other destination,

i hope it's clear now and thanks

where would you be getting this price from? a database? a text file? stored in a list that is currently in memory?

You can use the "SelectedValueChanged" event for the combobox. in the event, you can get the value that was chosen by using this code:

csharp

string userSelection = comboBox1.Text;


this will give you the text that the user is looking at when they select a value from the list.

now you just use that value to determine what other information you want to display.
