[Solved] GridDropDownColumn bound to static RadComboBox

[Atlas]

I have an updateable radgrid for which I would like to use a static combo box as an edit control.
How do I bind the edit control to the grid column, and how will it be displayed when not in edit mode?

<

 

MasterTableView Width="100%" EditMode="InPlace"

 

<

 

telerik:GridDropDownColumn DropDownControlType="RadComboBox"

 

 

<telerik:RadComboBox ID="RadComboBox1" runat="server">

 

 

<Items>

 

 

<telerik:RadComboBoxItem Value="3" Text="Excellent" />

 

 

<telerik:RadComboBoxItem Value="2" Text="Good" />

 

 

<telerik:RadComboBoxItem Value="1" Text="Fair" />

 

 

<telerik:RadComboBoxItem Value="0" Text="Poor" />

 

 

<telerik:RadComboBoxItem Value="4" Text="N/A" />

 

 

</Items>

 

 

</telerik:RadComboBox>

Hi Nano Sacay,

I would suggest you to use a GridTemplateColumn with a RadComboBox in its EditItemTemplate instead of a GridDropDownColumn. Here is a Sample aspx code:

   <telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="CheckBoxCol"  HeaderText="TempColumn" >
              <ItemTemplate>
                  <%#Eval("Status") %>
              </ItemTemplate>
             <EditItemTemplate>
                 <telerik:RadComboBox ID="RadComboBox1" runat="server">
                   <Items>
                        <telerik:RadComboBoxItem Value="3" Text="Excellent" />
                        <telerik:RadComboBoxItem Value="2" Text="Good" />
                        <telerik:RadComboBoxItem Value="1" Text="Fair" />
                        <telerik:RadComboBoxItem Value="0" Text="Poor" />
                        <telerik:RadComboBoxItem Value="4" Text="N/A" />

                   </Items>
                 </telerik:RadComboBox>
             </EditItemTemplate>
         </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
