Hi Virendra,

Typically the ComboBox in the GridViewCombobox column reacts to changes of the value of the cell. When shown (e.g. when the cell swtitches to edit mode ) the ComboBox will respect the value of the cell and display the right item .

So  the straight-forward approach would  to get and set the value fof the cell.

Here is some code that displays the value of a cell in the current row (Provided that we need the value of the first cell) :

            GridViewRow currentRow = this.RadGridView1.ItemsControl.ItemsGenerator.ContainerFromItem(this.RadGridView1.CurrentRecord) as GridViewRow;
            GridViewCell cell = currentRow.Cells[0] as GridViewCell;
            MessageBox.Show(cell.Value.ToString());

Note that the cell value is commited after cell editing is finished and focus is moved to another cell.
If that does not fit your scenario , please give me more details on your requirements , so I can prepare a sample app for you.

How do I set the selected value of a combobox in javascript.

I click on a line in a RadGrid.

In a combobox INSIDE an EditItemTemplate in a form view ("TE") I want to have the value selected and visible.

I have the value from the grid, I can get to the combobox with:

var CliCB = $find('<%= TE.FindControl("ClientCB").ClientID %>');

I know the value is IN the combobox

CliCB.findItemByValue(CID);

CliCB.select();

doesn't work

CliCB.SelectedValue= CID;

doesn't work

HOW is this done????

Thanks,
