ComboBoxColumn Values

[Christian]

Hi,

i feel like an idiot because i'm not able to find a solution for my quite easy problem:

I got a radDataGrid with 5 Columns, added through dataGrid.DataSource.

Then i added a ComboBoxColumn with name "Status", and NullValue = "False", so all in all i got 6 Columns (1 of them Comboboxcolumn)

If i change the value of the comboboxcolumn from "False" to "True", the whole row should become green.

I really have no idea how to fix this easy problem. And i really searched quite a while.

So what i wanna know: How can i read the current value in the combobox of the comboboxcolumn?

this.radGridView1.Rows[0].Cells["Status"].Value.ToString();

Above code doesn't work. I have really no idea!

Greetings

Is there no opportunity to read the value of a comboboxcolumn? If there are already existing threads, could somebody post a link to them? I can't find a solution.

Hi Christian,

Thank you for writing.

I assume that the values for your combo box are strings with "True" and "False" values. If this is the case, then you are setting the NullValue of the column to "False". In this case the cell value will be null.

Attached you can find a small project, demonstrating the desired functionality - when the combo value is true to change the row color to green. Additionally, I have added  a button and a text box. When you click the button, the combo value from the first row is displayed in the text box.

I hope this helps. Should you have any other questions, do not hesitate to contact us.
 
All the best,
