This link is not helpful, it is not a complete example on how to use this drop down. I have a simple IList<string> I want to use to pick a value in the column when editing, and I have no idea how to do it. This example is not helpful.

Hi Tim,

Please note, no other binding scenarios besides data source controls and DataSets are supported by the GridDropDownColumn.

For custom objects collections (In your case List) , it would probably be easier for you to just use a GridTemplateColumn with a RadComboBox in the EditItemTemplate.

Hope this information helps.
