DataGrid with ComboBoxes

[RFickling]

Hi,

I have implemented a DataGrid with ComboBoxes in it using the
DataGridComboBoxColumn class from the MSDN article. My problem is that I
would like to make the combobox disappear when an item is selected in
the list, showing only the selected item's value in the grid cell.
Currently, the combobox doesn't disappear until it loses focus. How can
this be done?

Thanks,
Royce

Add a handler to the ComboBox's SelectionChangeCommitted event... the
DataGridComboBoxColumn on the SyncFusion Windows Forms FAQ page does
this, although not for the same reason.

DataGridComboBoxColumn class from the MSDN article.

Hi!

Can you post the link to that article? I'm having trouble finding it.

Thanks !

This article implements a combobox datagrid, and the combo boxes are only
visible when the cell is active:

There are a number of good articles on the subject if you search MSDN
for DataGrid. The one which I used to do this is
http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/03/08/DataGrids/.
