How to programatically populate a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn in VB.net?
19,463
If you have a DataSource
in your combobox, you can do this
Dim dgvcc As New DataGridViewComboBoxCell
With dgvcc
.DataSource = answerStr
.ValueMember = "CampaignAnswerId"
.DisplayMember = "Answer"
End With
DataGridViewName.Item(columnIndex, rowIndex) = dgvcc
or you can just do this
Dim dgvcc As New DataGridViewComboBoxCell
dgvcc.Items.Add("test1")
dgvcc.Items.Add("test2")
dgvcc.Items.Add("test3")
DataGridViewName.Item(columnIndex, rowIndex) = dgvcc
Take note that you have to do this while you loop inside the DataGridView
.
For rowIndex as integer = 0 To DataGridViewName.Rows.Count - 1
Dim dgvcc As New DataGridViewComboBoxCell
dgvcc.Items.Add("test1")
dgvcc.Items.Add("test2")
dgvcc.Items.Add("test3")
DataGridViewName.Item(yourtextboxcolumnIndex, rowIndex) = dgvcc

I have been scratching my head for a while over this.
So I have added in design mode a
datagridview
to my form.The datagridview has 2 columns, one column is textbox column, the other column is combobox column.
I have figured out how to programmatically populate the cells of a textbox, however I can't figure out which property to use to populate the combobox column.
I am simply looking to have a
dropdown
with 3 options. Any ideas would be great.P.S: I just picked up VB.net 2 days ago so I apologize if the question is primitive :)
