void SetAlternateChoicesUsingItems(
DataGridViewComboBoxColumn^ comboboxColumn)
{
comboboxColumn->Items->AddRange("Mr.", "Ms.", "Mrs.", "Dr.");

column->DropDownWidth = 160;
column->Width = 90;
column->MaxDropDownItems = 3;
column->FlatStyle = FlatStyle::Flat;
}
return column;
}
private static void SetAlternateChoicesUsingItems(
DataGridViewComboBoxColumn comboboxColumn)
{
comboboxColumn.Items.AddRange("Mr.", "Ms.", "Mrs.", "Dr.");
}
private DataGridViewComboBoxColumn CreateComboBoxColumn()
{
DataGridViewComboBoxColumn column =
new DataGridViewComboBoxColumn();
{
column.DataPropertyName = ColumnName.TitleOfCourtesy.ToString();
column.HeaderText = ColumnName.TitleOfCourtesy.ToString();
column.DropDownWidth = 160;
column.Width = 90;
column.MaxDropDownItems = 3;
column.FlatStyle = FlatStyle.Flat;
}
return column;
}
Private Shared Sub SetAlternateChoicesUsingItems( _
ByVal comboboxColumn As DataGridViewComboBoxColumn)
comboboxColumn.Items.AddRange("Mr.", "Ms.", "Mrs.", "Dr.")
End Sub
Private Function CreateComboBoxColumn() _
As DataGridViewComboBoxColumn
Dim column As New DataGridViewComboBoxColumn()
With column
.DataPropertyName = ColumnName.TitleOfCourtesy.ToString()
.HeaderText = ColumnName.TitleOfCourtesy.ToString()

Remarks
This property specifies whether the hosted DataGridViewComboBoxEditingControl sorts existing entries and add new entries to the appropriate sorted position in the list. When this property is set to false
, new items are added to the end of the existing list. The sorting operation is case-insensitive and performed in alphabetically ascending order.
