Tbl1 has 4 columns (all with mapping names from Tbl1).I want to add a combo box in the fifth column that has its values from Tbl2. Is that possible and how pls. (i m developping a windows form application and not a web application)Thanks |

| Yes.Use a template column.In the item template add a dropdownlist.In the Item_DataBound event, bind the dropdown list to the second table.Here's th basic idea. http://www.odetocode.com/Articles/231.aspxBut instead of creating the dropdown list items manually, you'd bind the grid to the table.Dean FialaVery Practical Software, IncNow with Blogging...http://www.vpsw.com/blogbabyMicrosoft MVP |
