Combo Box

In a prior application, I had 2 combo boxes linked.  So if they chose something from CB1 it selected the match in CB2.  I did this by selected index because both lists were in the same order.

I now want to do something similar but I want the order to be different now.  I want each to be alphabatized.  So using selected index obviously won't work.  For the life of me I can't get this to work.  From what I understand if I am making CB2 match CB1 (cause they changed CB1), I need to set CB2.SelectedValue and I tried that.  But I'm just confused.   SelecteText really doesn't have a value anymore. so how can I accomplish this?  Thank you in advance before I turn grey!  LOL

 

private void cbSupervisor_SelectionChangeCommitted(object sender, EventArgs e)

{ cbSupervisorName.SelectedValue = cbSupervisor.SelectedText; }

private void cbSupervisorName_SelectionChangeCommitted(object sender, EventArgs e)

{ cbSupervisor.SelectedValue = cbSupervisorName.SelectedText; }
