hi i runtime bind the data into datagridview combobox. But how do i make it to auto display the first item? i do not able find the selectedindex from DataGridViewComboBoxColumn.
DataGridViewComboBoxColumn cbStudentCourse = (DataGridViewComboBoxColumn)dgStudentCourse.Columns["studentCourseStatus"];
cbStudentCourse.DataSource = Enum.GetValues(typeof(CourseStudentStatus));
cbStudentCourse.DisplayIndex = 1;
-- Update ---
i saw someone doing this in solution 3

Are you sure i need such a long code to just have the first item selected??????
A DataGridViewComboBoxColumn has no SelectedIndex
, and SelectedValue
properties. However you can get the same behavior of SelectedValue
by setting the Value
property.
For instance on first index the value member has value 2 then you should set .Value = "2"
to set the first index selected.
For example
myDataGridViewComboBoxColumn.Value = "20";
In your case
myDataGridViewComboBoxColumn.Value = CourseStudentStatus.EnumToBeSelected.ToString();
