Hi Jim,

Join the club. I think the message I just posted will help: Thread ID 863988. "Adding a Combobox to a DataGrid". Note there is also a format property for the column style. Check out the .Net help by searching on "Custom DateTime Format Strings" to get a handle on how to define the format strings.

Regards,

Terry Carroll

I would like to format the data as "hh:mm:ss.ss" in the DataGrid, but can't quite figure out how to do it. This was really simple in VFP. I just added my text box with a modified Refresh method to the grid and deleted the default textbox. That doesn't seem to be an option in C#.
