C# combo box in ASP.Net datagrid

Hello

I want to put a combo box into my datagrid. The combo box will not be filled from the database, but only have number 1 to 50. As this is a quantity that the user can select from and then update the database.

This is the code l have so far, doesn't really work well. And l am not sure how to fill the combox with the number 1 to 50 using ASP.Net.

Code:

---

<form id="Form1" method="post" runat="server">
                        <asp:DataGrid id="DataGrid1" style="Z-INDEX: 101; LEFT: 360px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 304px"
                                runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False">
                                <Columns>
                                        <asp:BoundColumn DataField="ProductCode" HeaderText="Product Code"></asp:BoundColumn>
                                        <asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="Quantity">
                                                <ItemTemplate>
                                                        <asp:DropDownList ID="cboQuantity" runat="server" />
                                                </ItemTemplate>
                                        </asp:TemplateColumn>
                                </Columns>
                        </asp:DataGrid>
                </form>

Many thanks in advance,

Hello,

Here is the answer.


private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
// Put user code to initialize the page here
if (!Page.IsPostBack )
{
sqlDataAdapter1.Fill(dataSet11);
DataGrid1.DataSource = dataSet11;
DataGrid1.DataBind();
FillCombo();
}
}

Code:

private void FillCombo()
{
int k = 0;
int j = 1;
DropDownList cmb ;
for (k = 0; k < DataGrid1.Items.Count - 1; k++)
{
cmb = (DropDownList)DataGrid1.Items[k].FindControl("cboQuantity");
for (j= 1; j <= 50; j++)
{
cmb.Items.Add(j.ToString());
}
}
}

Just another question. How can l get the value of the combo box item that the user selects. This information needs to be sent to another webform using request.QueryString["quantity"].ToString()

I am having a big problem with this.

Thanks for your help.

Steve
