ComboBoxColumn in DataGridView invalid display

Barbara Griffin

I have a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn . When the drop down is opened the list is accurately displaying the display member however

the text part of the control displays the value member.

I use a dataset, table adapter, and a binding source for the combobox

and a dataset, table adapter, and a binding source for the datagridview.

How can I get the text to display the display member as the list part of the control does successfully.

I was able to solve my problem. Everything was configured properly but the underlying SQL Server table had an incorrect datatype which I fixed. I then had to change the datatype on the underlying datatable as well.
