Is there a fairly simple way to set up the GridView to behave more like an Excel spreadsheet? 

If not is it possible to create a ComboBoxColumn when binding the GridView to a DataTable simply by assigning a List or IEnumerable type to the DataTable column?

Hi James,

Unfortunately autogenerating a ComboBoxColumn is not supported since there are a number of properties needed to be set in order for the column to function as expected. 

You can however handle the AutoGeneratingColumnsEvent and modify the default column created for a collection property to ComboBoxColumn. 

Let me know if you need any help with this!
