NullReference exception when clicking in a GridViewComboBoxColumn

[Håkan]

Hi!

I have a GridView declared as this:

<telerik:RadGridView x:Name="DataGrid"
                         ItemsSource="{Binding Shifts, Source={StaticResource ViewModel}}"

As you can see there are three combobox columns and the first two works fine, but when I click or tab into the third (with Header="Anställd") I get the following exception:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

   at Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView.GridViewCell.SetCellElement()

   at MS.Internal.JoltHelper.FireEvent(IntPtr unmanagedObj, IntPtr unmanagedObjArgs, Int32 argsTypeIndex, Int32 actualArgsTypeIndex, String eventName, UInt32 flags)

The exception is not handled anywhere and I end up in the Application_UnhandledException method in App.xaml.cs.
I don't know where to look, the code worked before, but there must be some modification I have made, but I don't know where.
Do you have any tip on where to start looking?

Hi,
Using only the xaml provided I was not able to reproduce the issue.
May be you should check your DataGrid_PreparingCellForEdit event handler.

If this does not help , I may need to perform a small debugging session over a runnable project.
