Edit Items in a WinForm DataGrid control

[Jon B]

Hi All!

I would like to make my WinForm DataGrid control so that user could easily
edit the items in the **related table**.

For instance, I have customers table and it has one-to-many relationship
with the customerType table. I would like the WinForm DataGrid to display a
column with "Customer Type" where users can select the type of customer from
a drop down list.

For example, see: http://aspnet.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/051904-1.aspx
However, this example is for ASP.NET DataGrid control only.

Can this be done with the WinForm DataGrid?

Many many thanks!
Jon

Hi Jon,

It certainly can. As a starting point, you might want to examine this
example:
http://www.codeproject.com/dotnet/DataGridEdtAlmostAnythin.asp

If you hunt around you'll find there are other examples of editing datagrids
on CodeProject.

Hope that helps.
