I have never built a Grid programatically but I can give you the steps with the Form Controls and these steps may relate to the programatic approach.

1) Click on the grid form control icon and then draw a rectangle on your form to create a Grid

2) Click on View | Data Environment and add your free table(s)

3) Right Click on the Grid and Click Builder and make your Grid

4) Right Click on the Grid and Click Edit

5) Click on the Combo Box Icon and then plant the combo box on the column of interest

6) Right Click on the Grid and Click Properties and then navigate to the column where you added the grid. You should see the reference to the Combo Box in the list when viewing the Grid elements in the upper box.

7) Suppose you added the Combo Box to column 2. Click on Column 2 of the Grid elements, then click the All Tab in the properties screen and then navigate to Current Control.

8) Now click on the box to the right of Fx and you should have a choice of Text1 or Combo1. Select Combo1 to make it the Current Control.

9) Now click on the Combo1 element of the Grid and then click the Data Tab on the property screen where you can set up the Control Source that it will link to, the Record Source for the combo list itself and the Row Source type.


If you don't do any of these steps properly with the form tools, then the Combo won't work.

If you are building the grid programatically (even though I have never done one) I suspect the program code has to address each element and property the same way.
