Hi Group,

I am having a problem with datagird and combox box.

Say for ex, I am populating datagrid with dataset that contains table
name "Orders". This table contains one column by name "CustomerName".

I am having one more dataset say "Customers" and I populate the combo
box with the Customer information. DisplayMember is "CustomerName" and
ValueMember is "CustomerId".

Now, when I select a row in datagrid, which contains CustomerName as
"Bill", then the selected index in ComboBox control has to be changed
to "Bill".

How to accomplish this.

Note: ComboBox is not part of DataGrid Control

Hi Prem,

It would have been easier if both tables had been in the same dataset.
Then you could have set a DataRelation between them and got the desired
effect very easily.

Take a look at these two threads for more info on this topic.

Set the property "Text" of the combobox to the Orders - CustomerName column,
