Try this which will get the path:

path = Path.Combine(backupPath, databaseNameComboBox.Text);

FolderBrowserDialog dlg = new FolderBrowserDialog();
if(dlg.ShowDialog()== DialogResult.OK)
{
    var database = yourDatabaseComboBox.SelectedItem.ToString();
    var extension= "bak";
    var databaseFileName = string.Format("{0}.{1}", database, extension);
    txtLocBa.Text = System.IO.Path.Combine(dlg.SelectedPath, databaseFileName);
}

Just concatenate:

txtLocBa.Text = dlg.SelectedPath + @"\" + comboBox1.Text

Well, depending on what your combobox's name is:

private void btnBrowseBa_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    string path = "";
    FolderBrowserDialog dlg = new FolderBrowserDialog();
    if(dlg.ShowDialog()== DialogResult.OK)
    {
        path = Path.Combine(dlg.SelectedPath, comboBox.Text);
    }
}
