Your question little bid confusing(I don't see question at all), but if my guess right, then your assigning of .DisplayMember and .ValueMember are wrong

Instead of assigning value of column, you need to tell a column name of .DisplayMember and column name of .ValueMember.

Column name must be from your datatable used as .DataSource

dtCnsmbl = prchasecls.RtrvcnsmrData();
cnsmNm.DataSource = dtCnsmbl;
cnsmNm.DisplayMember = "cnsm_Name";
cnsmNm.ValueMember = "cnsm_Id";
