Winforms ComboBox SelectedValueChange event

Question

How do I prevent code from executing in the SelectedValueChange event of a combobox when the combobox is being loaded for the first time? I need the code to execute when the user has selected a new value.

If you only want some code to be executed when the user changes the combobox you can subscribe to SelectionChangeCommitted instead of SelectionChanged. "SelectionChangeCommitted " doesn't get called when the combobox selection is changed programmatically.
