Dim myComboBox = New DataGridViewComboBoxColumn()
myComboBox.HeaderText = "Header name"
imyComboBox.DataSource = myDataTable

I am populating a DataGridView from a DataTable with a DataAdapter (VB 2008 Express, SQL 2008 Express). The dgv is for editing (with SqlCommandBuilder) a SQL table. I have added a ComboBoxColumn ("Type"), with a list, and removed the column from dgv ("Reason") who's index it replaces. What I can't figure out is the binding(?) to have the selected text displayed the same value as that from SQL table that is being edited. The ComboBox displays an index of -1, I need the selected text to be the data from row and field which is to be edited. The list is constant. Code so far is below:
Public Sub LoadDgvComps()
Dim myDA As SqlDataAdapter
Dim dsComps As DataSet[code]......

I have a databound combo box column. When a value in another field starts with an 8, I want to make the combo box read-only and turn the background gray so the user knows it is read-only.
Here is the code I'm using, where am I going wrong? It doesn't change the backcolor to gray.
Private Sub dgvTest_CellFormatting(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellFormattingEventArgs) Handles dgvTest.CellFormatting

i am using a Datagridview on my form. It get's it's datasource from a dataset: grd.datasource=set_temp After that I add ComboboxColumns manually. At the end I loop columns and set values into that cells from the comboboxcolumns. Works perfect so far. Now I click on a header and the sorting is changed, and then the cells from the comboboxcolumns all lose their values, they are all empty.
Why and what do I do to avoid that? Or must i refill those manual Values after sorting?

I have a child form in an MDI application with a datagridview comboboxcolumn. I'm filling it with string values. When I load the form independently of the parent, I am able to set values for the comboboxcells. But when the form is loaded as part of the MDi application, with the same exact code, the cells are empty.

I have a GUI which allows the user to select a report to view/edit. When the user selects a report, it shows the Items in the report. The Item has many properties - most of which are binding properly. One of the properties is Owner, and this is bound to a ComboBoxColumn.
Report
Items
Owner
I have done something very similar to this a few times and had no problems when I set the DataPropertyName, DataSource, ValueMember, and DisplayMember. The only difference is that this time instead of the Item type having an OwnderID it actually has an instance of the Owner object.giving the items bound in the list a self-referencing property that allows them to return themselves for the purposes of setting the ValueMember.However, When I bind it this way:
OwnerColumn.DataPropertyName = "Owner"
OwnerColumn.DataSource = ownersBindingSource1
OwnerColumn.ValueMember = "Self"
OwnerColumn.DisplayMember = "OwnerName"
I get a lot of errors like: Unable to cast object of type 'System.String' to type 'Owner'.
and:
The following exception occurred in the DataGridView:
System.ArgumentException: DataGridViewComboBoxCell value is not valid.To replace this default dialog please handle the DataError event.I was able to get around some of these errors by binding it like this:
OwnerColumn.DataPropertyName = "Owner"
OwnerColumn.DataSource = ownersBindingSource1
and also by making the ToString function on the Owner display the OwnerName property. This seems pretty hacky though - and I think I'm misunderstanding something fundamental as it still does not function properly.

With the two lists (t1s and t2s), I want to display t1s in a DataGridView, and in one column show the T2 property as a comboBox column, which dropdown will show the t2s list such that a new list instance can be selected. T2 has a Name property that should be used for displaying it in the comboBoxColumn.
I'm able to display the dropdown, but remaining a few problems:
1. How to display the correct comboBox "selection" on "load"?
2. How to change the T2 child object instance when combobox selection is made?
3. This is a really basic problem, which suddenly happened and I just couldn't understand what I have changed; The code marked BLUE now just shows empty cells.. While the AutoGenerated columns do show values.. Shouldn't those "manual" columns work?

I have a comboboxcolumn in a DataGridView. I have loaded int with string data that appears in the dropdown box. I have added an event to it for an SelectedIndexChanged. What I am trying to do is autosize the width of the cell in the column based on the string chosen in the drop-down box within this SelectedIndexChanged event. This seems to work but it does not work off the initial selection change. When I select the desired string in the dropdown box the width of the cell does not autosize. I am not sure why.
I was trying to get around this by wrapping an IF stmt around the autosize logic by saying if cell value = "" then cell.width = Max Width of all loaded strings/ However, I can't figure out how to access the string array loaded into the dropdown list

I am using VB 2005 professional and SQL Server 2005 express edition.
For the last two weeks I have been trying to have a datagridview control on a form that will have datasource from a dataset with two tables that are related. I want child the column to be a ComboBoxColumn where userts can select options and update the other data(from the other table).
I have two tables in an sql server 2005 database named computers:-
computers
locations
Table computers looks like thisID is the primary key column)
ID Location
Computer139
Computer240
[Code].....
With the location column being a ComboBoxColumn so that when a user enters a new ID say Computer5,they have a choice of a dropdownmenu for the Location column. In the database table computers the item should be saved as well as the index value(to correspond to the LocationID).

easy way to simply load the data from database into a datagridview with one of the columns being a comboboxcolumn. Apparently there is no selectedvalue, selectedindex or value as in a combobox to return the combobox value. What I need is to verify if the database value is 'true' and if it is then I need to set the comboboxcolumn with a specific value.
Ex:
if ds.tables(0).rows(0)("flag") = "true" then
datagridcolumn.selectedvalue = 1
else
datagridcolumn.selectedvalue = 0
end if

I'm pretty new to VB.Net programming, but have already been able to figure out many things using this forum, but also via the many other forums on the internet.I'm currently stuck with a question though regarding getting the clicked value in a datagridview comboboxcolumn.When I use _Selected IndexChanged and then check the current cells value, what I get is the value before I clicked the new one in the comboboxcolumn.When I use _CellEditFinished, I can get the new value, but only after I selected another cell, or changed focus to another object.How do I get the new value from a DataGridViews ComboBoxColumn the moment I clicked it in the pulldown menu from the ComboBoxColumn?

I have a DataGridView (dgv) on a Windows form (VB.NET) which is bound to a datatable. One of the bound columns is a an ID (Foreign Key) to another datatable. All I want to do is Hide the ID column and populate an unbound column with the Name (ParmName) for the user. I searched the foreign value in the datatable and retrieved the information. I set the Value of the cell in the Datarow. All works well, but does not display. The cell accepts the value...I can even Debug.Print the values to the console. They are there just nothing displaying in DataGridView. Nothing odd about DataGridView. Should be straight forward...

Dim dtParm As DataTable = MyDataSet.tblParameter
Dim dgv As DataGridView = Me.dgvResultNum_DataGrid

I have several problems with rows in a DataGridView. Background information: The DataGridView (DataGridViewCalib) is in one TabPage of a TabControl, some columns of the DataGridView are automatically DataGridViewCheckBoxColumn as the DataSource have some colums which are Boolean. This is a Windows Form written in VB.Net with Visual Studio 2008. The user loads an input data file.
The problems:
1) At first arrival in the TabPage, ShowDataGridViewCalib (code below) is called. All rows are then shown in the DataGridView, despite the code saying that some rows should not be visible. Breakpoints in the code show that the code do arrive at the Rows.Visible = False events. Despite all rows beeing shown a Watch in the debugger shows that:
[code]...
There are two alternative ways of handling the rows in the code. The first attempt (commented away here) is probably the "nicest".

I am using VS2008 and I have a form which has a datagridview. This is for an invoice where I already have the user select the customer from a details view and want to have the items in the datagridview change based on what the customer selected. Then when the item is selected I want to have the price change accordingly.
So far I have the customer selction as well as the item combobox(not limited to cust items yet) appear, but I cannot figure out how to get the join of the 2 items (cust+item as the price varies from cust to cust) to change the price. Question is, is it possible to do this in the same datagridview, or should i try to just break this down some other way?

I have a DataGridView where Cell_Validating is being done. I have a Cancel button on my form that allows the user to exit out of the DataGridView changes. The problem is that if a cell was currently flagged as in error, I cannot exit and remove columns from the DataGridView. I get the following error: Operation did not succeed because the program cannot commit or quit a cell value change. Is there a way to cancel the validation once the focus has been removed from the DataGridView? Here is my Cell_Validating

My application must display some data in Datagridview (status of COM ports communication) and i Used .mdb databases before for faster search and Datagridview update. How i understand Datagridview is importing data from DataTable and data in DataTable is imported from .mdb file, so i decided to make shortcut - stop to using .mdb file (data must be erased every time application start and it is useless make .mdb file and erase it every time, becouse it is increasing even when drop is used) and using only DataTable..
I want to row in Datagridview change it color to red when it's Collumn(6).text countains %error% string..
When Error in COM port is starting, i can fast find row in DataTable for that port and write information that Error accured for that port and DataGridview automatically updates:
Dim RRow as () DataRow
RRow = ds.Select("Port = 'COM3')
RRow(0).Item(6) = "Error Opening COM3"
