C# custom combobox sorting

Question

Is it possible to have a custom sort/display order in a combox ? Say I want a special value \"MasterValue\" before all the others.

Answer 1

The following code will do the trick.

1. Create a separate list of the items you want to sort and then use AddRange.

   comboBox1.Items.Add("Master");
   
   List listToSort = new List();
   
   listToSort.Add("6nd");
   listToSort.Add("3nd");
   listToSort.Add("5nd");
   listToSort.Add("4nd");
   listToSort.Add("2nd");
   
   listToSort.Sort();
   
   comboBox1.Items.AddRange(listToSort.ToArray());
