I have created a Telerik Test application with 4 controls( a button, 2 drop-down lists and a text box).
What I am trying to do is, on hitting the "Add project" button, the first drop-down list(project list from PopulateProjects() method) gets displayed. On selecting a project from this list, a next drop-down list with "project tasks from PopulateTasks() method" gets displayed. On selecting a task, the text box control displays the text content of both the project and task selected(TextDisplay() method).
The problem I am facing is, the drop-down controls do not wait for me to select an item, instead it just automatically selects the first item in the list as default. So the text box displays the first item in project list and project task i.e it displays "PROJECT abc TASK task one" . I am unable to even view the items in the drop-down list but I can see the items exist when I debug. The flow goes from radProjList.EndUpdate directly to the selectedIndexChanged. The event gets fired event though there was no change in index. The drop-down list does not even get displayed.

}
I have not added the code to InitializeComponents().
Any thoughts or help appreciated!
