How can I set a default item as selected in a ComboBox when a form loads
I tried adding "this.FilterCostOperatorComboBox.SelectedItem = 2;" to the InitializeComponent function, but when the form loads, the combobox is still blank...
I'm writing in C#/VS 2005, if it makes a difference...

When do you fill the combobox with items
try using the Load event of the form

Or .SelectedIndex = -1 to display nothing initially is handy.

Is what is seen in the box numbers
Have you set a value for each item
Try this, using the index of the box instead....
this.FilterCostOperatorComboBox.SelectedIndex = 0;
This will set the box onload to the first item in the list.
