Listbox Selected Value problem

I have a databound listbox with the Display Member set to the 'Name' field
of my table and the Value Member set to the 'ID' (int) field. Now when I
select
a listbox item I can get the 'ID' of that item with listbox.SelectedValue as
expected.
The problem is, if I set the listbox Sort property to true then
listbox.SelectedValue no
longer returns the correct value for a particular selected item. Anyone know
why this
is the case?

TIA

The docs do specifically say not to use the Sort() method with data
binding. You are supposed to sort the data source itself instead.

Thanks for that. I`m new to this so I wasnt aware you werent supposed to
use the Sort() . I just couldnt see what I was doing wrong:-).
