How to (or can I) list attributes of objects from a Generic list, displaying it in a combobox

I'm just a beginner, so I think I'll run into such problem very often.

Here is the thing.

I have a generic list of objects, let's say garage, many Car objects are in the garage.

List<Cars> garage=new List<Car>();

Car has attribute, like car.make; car.model; car.year;

Now I have this garage list, and several car has been added to this list.

what I want to do is to using a ComboBox to list one specific attribute of these cars.

for example I want to have this dropdown list displaying the car's year (assume all cars have distinct year). All I can go so far is like this, but don't know how to go further.

    myComboBox.DataSource = garage???

Could anyone help me point out something? I know it should has something to do with Generic List, but the books I have use only couple pages on this and not go into it further.

    namespace test
    {
        public partial class Form1 : Form
        {
            List<car> garage = new List<car>();
            public Form1()
            {
                InitializeComponent();
                car c1 = new car(98, "corolla", "toyota");
                car c2 = new car(99, "camary", "toyota");
                car c3 = new car(00, "eclipse", "misubishi");

                garage.Add(c1);
                garage.Add(c2);
                garage.Add(c3);
                foreach (car c in garage)

                    cBox.Items.Add(c.make);
                }
            }



            private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
            {
                MessageBox.Show(garage[cBox.SelectedIndex].make);
            }
        }
        class car 
        {
            public int year;
            public string make;
            public string brand;
            public car(int y, string m, string b)
            {
                year = y;
                make = m;
                brand = b;
            }
        }
    }

I don't know which combo You use (Winforms, WebForms) but there should DisplayMember (what attribute will be used as text in combo) and ValueMember (which attribute will be used as value)

You can have following

    myComboBox.DisplayMember = "year";//Here year is the car year
    myComboBox.ValueMember = "name";//Here name is the car name
    myComboBox.DataSource = garage;

Thanks Ashwani

Now I have a solution, is to use iterator to add items.

foreach (car c in garage)
        {
            cBox1.Items.Add(c.make);
            cBox2.Items.Add(c.year);
        }

this will work good enough.
