We have a grid that we bind to a dataset where each row has a status (expired, new, updated, etc). These are stored in the database with the first letter (e, n, u, etc).
In our grid we would like to display these as e, n or u, but in the edit form we would like to display a dropdown containing the full representation (expired, new, updated, etc).
Since there are only a limited number of possible datavalues in the dropdown we would like to declare these as an array of ListItems and set it as the datasource of the dropdown. Hopefully we would be able to do it from codefront :)
Cheers!
