In the sample located at http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/start.htm#AttributeQuery , in the section QueryComboBox_SelectionChanged, how does the query know which field to search for the query.text value? I am trying to implement this sample with my own data and even though the combobox is properly populated, when the selection is changed the second query cannot find a matching feature. I am wondering what is wrong and noticed that nowhere is it specified which field to search. If I specifically set the Where clause, it does work. So I am wondering what's up with the sample code and why does it work in the sample and not in my project?

Thanks for any insights.

The sample is using Query.Text property which is a shorthand for a literal search text on the display field.
If your display field is not the one you want to use for querying, you can set the where clause instead.
