Hi,

Please provide more details. I don't understand your requirements
Combobox can provide one value only. If you need to select several values then use MultiCombo control

Hi Vlad,

The combobox get its values from database the values are list of years(2005,2007,2008,2010)

The customer want to select 2010 but my code need to show them data from 2010 and 2008 the perior year. I thought since the data already on the page my be I can send the full list to the server and I can grab 2008 because it is before the selected value which is 2010. The main reason I am trying to do that so I won't go to the database again

Hi,

1. You can cache DB data on the server side (it will avoid to retrieve data from DB and avoid to send data from client side (save traffic) ). For example, use ASP.NET cache


2. If you still want to read all data from combo's store and send back to the server then use the following extra parameter

<ext:Parameter Name="values" Value="Combo1.store.getRecordsValues()" Encode="true" Mode="Raw"/>

Thanks Vlad. can you mark it as solved. That was what I needed

I couldn't use caching because the data is not the same. every record can used in different years.
