I saw your post as I was looking for information about how to use the DataGridComboBoxColumStyle to put combos in the datagrid. I have had no luck getting this to work. Do you have any example code for how to use that combobox columstyle in the grid?
Thanks in advance,
Andy

The underlying value of the column is the numeric ID but the DataGridComboBoxColumnStyle displays a textual description based on a Relation in a DataSet instead. This works wonderfully for displaying and editing the data.

Hello Justin.
Did you get a solution for this problem ?
I have the same problem and did not found any solution until now.
Thanks for your answer.
