Is there a way to change a selected item in a combobox, without
triggering the SelectedIndexChanged event?

I got listener on a few comboboxes, 'cause i want to save the changes
immediately to an instance of say... "foo". But when the user loads
another instance of "foo", i want to set the selecteditem in the
comboboxes to the appropriate values according to the loaded "foo",
without triggering the SelectedIndexChanged event.

I can solve this with the follow code

bool loadingOld = true;
private void comboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender,
System.EventArgs e)
{
if(!loadingOld)
{
foo.save()
}
}

, but i don't like the look of it.

So is ther anyone that knows if you can change selecteditem without
triggering the SelectedIndexChanged event?

Another workaround is to remove the eventhandler, change the value and then
reattach it

Cheers
Daniel
