Floating combobox over datagrid

[zlovelife]

I'm sure this has been asked a million times but....
I can't seem to find an answer so I'll ask it for the
millionth and oneth time. I want to do a floating
combobox over a datagrid to allow my users to select
data items from a list. I understand the concept well
enough but I haven't used datagrids much. Can someone
post some code or point me to a link that shows how to
get at the properties in the datagrid to postion my
combobox. I appreciate your time.

hai pete
sounds intresting i am not sure but if this you want then you can create a false one which behaves like combo box but actuall not.
try this.

1. make the column as a button type
2. then write this

Private Sub DataGrid1_ButtonClick(ByVal ColIndex As Integer)
List1.Visible = True
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Load()
List1.Visible = False
End Sub

Private Sub List1_Click()
List1.Visible = False
End Sub

i can give you the exact codeing if this doesn't work . coem back to me soon. o.k
we may not be noticed your qs. sorry to be late

After a long gap in this area, a very lucid readymade control, named Hotkey DataGridPlus, is now available at

http://www.hot-soft.com

This control adds to the functionality of Microsoft DataGrid, is very easy to use, and is capable of handling data aware combo boxes, column size and capital letter convertion while entry.

If this is of your use...
