How do I handle duplicate DisplayMembers in GridListControl?

[Administrator]

Hi,

I have a combobox grid column with a GridListControl (GLC) as my list control. GLC has Id, Name, Type as 3 columns. Id is my Value member. Name is my Display Member.

Some sample data:
"1", "Tom", "Sales"
"2", "Tom", "HR"
"3", "John", "Marketing"
"4", "Mary", "Marketing"

As you see, I have two "Tom"s. No Matter which Tom I select, It is always giving me the first Tom. How do I let it accept the second one.

thanks,
- Reddy

This appears to be a bug.

Until we can get it fixed, you could derive your own dropdown gridlistcontrol cell, and work around the problem there. Attached is a sample that seems to handle this problem OK.
