Question : How to use two values in a VB.NET ComboBox

My situation is that I have a form called "Batch" that has a ComboBox that needs to be filled with User names.  Once the user selects a name, I need to get the UserID for that name.  I've tried using a DataSet, but I don't know how to retrieve the information from it.  My SQL statement is:

mySQL = "SELECT UserID,LoginName " & _
                "FROM Users " & _
                 "ORDER BY LoginName;"

Using the DataSet for the DataSource of the ComboBox property doesn't work.  It doesn't work either if I select just the LoginName in mySQL.  I've also thought of using a collection to store the information, but I couldn't figure out how to do that.  

What I've tried is:  cboLoginName.DataSource = myDataSet, and it doesn't work.
In your answer, I'll need clear and complete code because I am new to VB.NET.  I want to implement this entirely in code.

I know that my DataSet contains the correct data, because I set the DataSource in a DataGridView to myDataSet, and that worked.

I hope someone can help, and that I explained my problem clearly.

Thank you!
