Setting Datagridview combobox column value to null.

88 New Member
There's an editable datagridview populated from a table say tblItems. Among the columns of the datagridview there's a combobox column named 'Category'. This column is populated by the respective 'Category' column of tblItems. Now in the 'Category' column of the datagridview I want to set the value of a certain cell to Null programmaticall y. Suppose when I press keyboard Delete button over the cell or some other button on the form, the value of the cell becomes Null. Datagridview.ke ydown event isn't working as when the cell is selected the focus is actually on the editingcontrol of the cell and not the datagridview. Also the combobox editingcontrol doesn't have any 'SelectedIndex' property that can be set to -1. Any idea plz? Regards.

Its often necessary to allow the user to remove a selection from a combox. In my case, most are bound to lookup tables. I suppose I could, in each lookup table create an empty record and have in the combobox when its being filled but there are several reasons why this is not a desirable approach one is that I would often have to set allownull in the datatable design when I really need a value. So I need to be able to allow user to simply...

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? ...

I have a Datagridview that is bound to a DataTable. So there are no column templates to modify at design time. Is there a way I can convert a certain column (if it exists) to a ComboBoxColumn at runtime after the Datagridview is bound? *** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***

I'm trying to make a datagridview column to act like a datetimepicker column (C#.Net 2005). These are the behaviours that the dgv should have: 1) Initially all the cells of the dtp column should be blank unless they are filled by the user. 2) As soon as the user enters a cell, the dtp control should appear as the editing control of that cell. If there's a value in the cell beforehand, that value is set as the value of the dtp editing control...

I have a data grid view which works very well in almost all respects. However, I have a problem that arises when I allow the addition of items to the grid on the fly. I do this by intercepting the OnEditingControlShowing handler and setting the DropDownStyle to ComobBoxStyle.DropDown: protected override void OnEditingControlShowing(DataGridViewEditingControlShowingEventArgs e) { cb = e.Control as ComboBox; ...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
