Clear ComboBox selected text

Question

I have a ComboBox control with the DropDownStyle properties set to DropDownList. Once there is an item selected, how can I clear the selection from the ComboBox without deleting any Items in it ?

I'd normally use something like that:

myComboBox.Text.Clear();

But I can't do that. Any idea how I could clear it ?

Answer 1

You could change SelectedIndex property:

comboBox1.SelectedIndex = -1;

Answer 2

The only way I could get it to work:

comboBox1.Text = "";

For some reason ionden's solution didn't work for me.
