>I was trying to get this to work in a grid with Sparse on (screen update was horrible with Sparse off). In the grid, when not selected, the column shows a textbox with the bound value in it. You can't, or aleast I haven't been able to manipulate that control. The one that displays the value when the column doesn't have focus. Again it works really well outside the grid.

I think your issue with that grid column would be resolved if you removed the textbox from it, leaving only the dropdown combo. Is there a reason you left that textbox in there? Do you know how to remove a control from a grid column?
