Clearing out a ComboBox

[Aaron]

Why is it that I cannot seem to figure out how to clear a combobox out. Am
I an idiot, or is it harder than I thought it could be? I need to retain
all the items, just clear the text area out when users open the form up
again.

I've tried:

this.cmbInches.Text = "";

and:

this.cmbInches.Items.IndexOf(0);

and neither seem to work. Can anyone give me the simple solution that I
must be overlooking?

Thanks

Set the SelectedIndex to -1

And if it is bound to a datasource - set it to -1 twice (bug)
