DropDownList on VB asp.net DataGrid

[dirksm]

I'm trying to get a dropdownlist on a datagrid in asp.net (writing VB code). The dropdownlist should be connected to another table in my database, to function as a look-up for foreign keys in the grid's table. This way I want to prevent users from typing invalid values in the grid.

Does anybody out there know how to do this? Some sample code would be greatly appreciated, but any help is welcome.

Thanx!!
