How to populate combobox nested within dataGridView

Hi,

I've a column in a dataGridView set as combobox. I can't find any example
showing how to populate the list in the combobox. Does anyone have an example
showing me this.

Regards Jesper.

You can click the dataGridView in the designer and open the Columns
property. Select the column that you specified as a combo box and open the
Items property for that column. You can add your combo box items for this
column in here. You can accomplish the same thing through code:

DataGridViewCom boBoxColumn myCol = dataGridView1.C olumns[3];
myCol.Items.Add ("1");
myCol.Items.Add ("2");
myCol.Items.Add ("3");

It would be convenient to use the DataGridView for all other fields but maybe...

I have been searching all over the web for a way to sort a DataGridView based on the actual text being shown in a ComboBox column as opposed to the underlying value (an ID in this case). Can anyone tell me if this is even possible, and if so, how to do it? If this is completely impossible, how would you suggest going about sorting a ComboBox wherein the text displayed in the column is the client's name, and the underlying value is an ID? ...
