Examples

The following code example demonstrates the use of the DataGridViewComboBoxColumn.Items property, which is similar to this property. This example is part of a larger example available in the DataGridViewComboBoxColumn class overview topic.

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

private:
    DataGridViewComboBoxColumn^ CreateComboBoxColumn()
    {
        DataGridViewComboBoxColumn^ column =
            gcnew 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 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()
        .DropDownWidth = 160
        .Width = 90
        .MaxDropDownItems = 3
        .FlatStyle = FlatStyle.Flat
    End With
    Return column
End Function

Remarks

This property enables you to obtain a reference to the list of items that are currently stored in the DataGridViewComboBoxCell. With this reference, you can add items, remove items, and obtain a count of the items in the collection. For more information on the tasks that can be performed with the Items collection, see DataGridViewComboBoxCell.ObjectCollection.

If strings are added to Items, then ValueMember and DisplayMember do not need to be set because each string added will be used for both value and display.

Note

DataGridViewComboBoxCell does not support the use of multiple items with identical display values.

If the DataSource property is set, then the Items property cannot be used.

The formatted value of the cell must always be one of the values in the Items collection or an error will occur and the cell value will revert to the first item in the collection. You can customize this behavior by handling the DataGridView.DataError and DataGridView.CellFormatting events.

Setting this property to a value other than the value of the parent column's Items property will force the row to become unshared, allocating extra memory. For more information about row sharing, see Best Practices for Scaling the Windows Forms DataGridView Control.
