Datagridview Combobox

[barski]

Is there now way to add items without setting the datasource of the combobox? i'm very confused by this it would seem to me that there should be a way to comboboxColumn.Items.Add(value,display) but every example i see has datasource=sometable

displaymember= column1Name

valueMemeber = column2Name

 

any help would be appreciated. for now i'll just create a table and bind it since that's the only way i can get it to work.

Try this:

 

Create a new winform and add a combobox in designer.

Then go to code and add this:

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.ComponentModel;

using System.Data;

using System.Drawing;

using System.Linq;

using System.Text;

using System.Windows.Forms;

 

namespace quick_test

{

public partial class Form1 : Form

{

public Form1()

{

InitializeComponent();

}

 

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

string example = "This is an example";

 

comboBox1.Items.Add(example);

}

}

}

 

Is this what you mean?

I think what he meant was that he has a datagridview where one of the columns is of type combobox.

 

Barski: I don't believe what you are asking for is possible.
