GridViewComboBoxColumn edit and auto-complete functionality similar to RadComboBox

[John]

Hi,

My situation is this: I have a RadGridView control with one or more columns defined as GridViewComboBoxColumn. These combobox columns are populated with a large amount of rows, and I want to provide to the users the same functionality as in a regular RadComboBox control: type in an input field the first few letters of an item they want and the combobox column auto-completes the first match in the list and scrolls to it.

Is there any solution to this? What I tried is using a custom column derived from GridViewBoundColumnBase, as in the demo GridView->Columns->Custom Column, but couldn't make it to work.

Hello BESLEAGA,

You may set the IsComboBoxEidtable property of the GridViewComboBoxColumn to "True".
