DataGridView with Combobox in Column

[Rich Knapp]

I'm binding Access manually to my Grid and it works great, but I want to include a combo box in a grid column that displays fields from a related table.

What is a good way to go about this?

Thanks

This isn't quite what I'm trying to do. For one thing, I'm working in VB.NET. Also,I want the descripive value of the related table to display in the DataGridView. (This is easily done through a query.) However, I also want to able to select and change the descriptive value by clicking in the cell and seeing a dropdown/combobox that I can pick from.

Thoughts?

It's very easy to do that, you have to but in your data grid or data view any item template then you have to add in it your drop down list with your data text filed and you data value filed
then you have to create function return your data table then in your data gird item data bound you have to find the control i mean you drop down list
then you will add for this dripo down list in data Source your data table ( function return data table ) then your drop down list data bind

that will be good Inshaa Allah
