How to Insert User Control into DataGrid Cell

[Tolga]

How do insert a user control i have created into a datagrid cell.
Basically i am trying to create a column of my user controls. This is
what i have tried so far.


int i = 0;
while (i < dsSignIn1.Tables["Contacts"].Rows.Count)
{
SignatureControl.SignatureControl sig1 =
new SignatureControl.SignatureControl();
Point p1 = new Point(dgSignIn.GetCellBounds(i,3).X,dgSignIn.GetCellBounds(i,3).Y);//,dgSignIn.GetCellBounds(i,0).Y);
MessageBox.Show(this,p1.ToString());
sig1.Location = p1;
this.Controls.Add(sig1);
i++;
}

I get the cooulmn of the user controls but they show up on the form
behind the datagrid.

How can i get them on the datagrid?

I have not done this before, but I remeber seeing that you can add a control
to a Datagrid cell by addin it to the Controls collection of the cell. You
are adding it to the Controls collection of the form now, just positioning
it at the same place as your cell.

Here is a related link used for updating values in a web datagrid:

Ignore it. It is only for updating web datagrids...
sorry!
