Answer 1

Another way to make sure that you have data is add a ChangeWatcher to the dataProvider, so that you will be notified when new data is bound. Then you can simply traverse the data and select whichever one you want, in your case selectedIndex=0;

Answer 2

You can select the first value by setting: selectedIndex=0 or set the selectedItemproperty.

But you should make sure that there is an item which you can select. This could be for example done in the setter of the dataProvider.
