Custom ComboBox with permanent items

Hi,

I'm developing a control (derived from ComboBox) with permanent items
(First, Previous, Next, Last). So, I'd like it's collection of items couldn't
be changed neither in design time nor programmaticall y.

public class Navigator: ComboBox {
Navigator() {
IntializeCompon ents();
}

private void InitializeCompo nents() {
this.Item.AddRa nge(new string[]{"First", "Previous", "Next", "Last"});
this.SelectedIt emChanged += new
SelectedIndexCh angedEventHandl er(ComboBox_Sel ectedIndexChang ed);
}

private void ComboBox_Select edIndexChanged( ) {
MessageBox.Show (SelectedIndex. ToString());
}
}

What should I do? I thought override Items property, but I couldn't realize
it.
Thanks in advance,
dmanhr

I want to be able to set the ComboBox's SelectedItem property by setting IntegerValue, so for instance if I have the following items in

I have a general DataGridComboBoxColumn that I built using the Example in the .NET 2003 Combined Collection help file (that was a data time picker). I am able to assign a data source and display / value members so the ComboBox is data bound and that works, to a point. What generally works is the ComboBox get's populated and the ComboBox shows itself when the appropriate column/row is selected. When the ComboBoxColumn isn't selected it...

Hey everyone... I've got three problems with a custom DataGridView column I've built following the "How To: Host Controls in Windows Forms DataGridView Cells" article. The base editing control is a ComboBox which is similar to the built-in Combo column but will hopefully be more flexible. First: I am using this control in multiple columns which _should_ hold unique items. However, the items added to column A are visible in
