  Hi I have a C1Combo, in the designer I’ve added two columns and hidden one of them. The combo is set to additems and in my code I’m adding data by using the following syntax, cboCompany.AddItem(companyName & “;” & companyKey). This works accept that the companyKey column becomes visible yet it is set to not be displayed in the designer.
  
  Am I doing something wrong? Does .addItem overwrite the column design specified in the designer? I’ve used the activeX combo in the past and once you set the design its not overwritten.
  
  Thank you

  Hi,

  We are happy to inform you that we have got the response from the devs and as per them: it’s expected behavior, C1Combo initializes columns for the internal table from the AddItem method if AddItemsCols was not set.

  You can take a look into the attached sample implementing the same.

  Thank you for the reply, it’s a shame it AddItem initializes the columns but thanks to the demo I know how to hide them via code.
