I am new to creating forms in Visual Studio and C#. But I made a UI that has some comboboxes where the DropDownStyle is DropDownList. The items shown is Yes and No. But I need to assign this as a boolean value to a property on some object ai and currently do this:

    if (cmbExample.Text == "Yes")
    {
        ai.isPacketType = true;
    }
    else if (cmbExample.Text == "No")
    {
        ai.isPacketType = false;
    }

I basically want to do something like this (or some other one liner):

ai.isPacketType = cmbExample.Text;

How do I link the Text Yes to the value true and No to false?
