Combo boxes with a foreign key

[Administrator]

Hi

I was wondering if anybody had encountered the following problem?

I have a GridDataBoundGrid which has a column containing combo boxes. The combo boxes are populated via a DataView of another table. This works fine but when I attempt to sort the rows of the column by clicking the column header, the rows are sorted according to the MappingName (I think) rather than the String displayed in the combo itself.

Has anybody encountered anything similar and know a solution?

Hi Dave,

Please refer to the DataBoundSortByDisplayMember sample in \Syncfusion\Essential Studio\4.1.0.50\windows\Grid.Windows\Samples\DataBound\DataBoundSortByDisplayMember\ which implements a solution for sorting a column by its display member instead of the value member of the column. Let us know if you need any further assistance.

Regards,
Calvin.
