Hi Smith,

You can add rows to the Datagrid using Columns property with Add method. Something like,

dataGridView1.Rows.Add("Windows XP");

To add combobox and Textbox to the Cells of the datagrid you can use the Sample code below,

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
 
namespace BindingTexandCombo
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }
 
        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {   
            dataGridView1.Columns.Add("Name","Name");            
            var rows = dataGridView1.Rows;
 
            rows.Add("Suhash");
            rows.Add("Lithi");
            rows.Add("Chintu");
 
            DataGridViewColumn particulars = new DataGridViewTextBoxColumn();
            particulars.HeaderText = "Place";
            particulars.Name = "Place";
            dataGridView1.Columns.Add(particulars);
 
            DataGridViewComboBoxColumn cmb = new DataGridViewComboBoxColumn();
            cmb.Name = "Gender";
            cmb.Name = "Gender"; 
            cmb.Items.Add("Male");
            cmb.Items.Add("Female"); 
            dataGridView1.Columns.Add(cmb); 
        }
 
        private void dataGridView1_EditingControlShowing(object sender, DataGridViewEditingControlShowingEventArgs e)
        {
            //Create and fill a list to use as the custom data source
            var source = new AutoCompleteStringCollection();
            source.AddRange(new string[] { "Chennai", "Thiruvallur", });
 
            //Set the appropriate properties on the textbox control
            TextBox dgvEditBox = e.Control as TextBox;
            if (dgvEditBox != null)
            {
                dgvEditBox.AutoCompleteMode = AutoCompleteMode.Suggest;
                dgvEditBox.AutoCompleteCustomSource = source;
                dgvEditBox.AutoCompleteSource = AutoCompleteSource.CustomSource;
            }
        } 
    }
}

Hope this might help you.

Thanks,

Shankar
