  Hi all, I have a problem with this DataGridViewComboBoxColumn control I don't know how to solve. Here is what I want to do: I have a DataGridView and a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn in it; I want to be able to type in a new value into this combobox and when I hit Enter, the value to be saved and selected. My current approach involves the usage of the EditingControlShowing and CellValidating events for the DatGrid, but they are fired when the cell lost focus, therefore I will have to go back to the cell, drop the list and select the value entered. Any help or suggestion will be appreciated! Thanks a bunch, Bogdan
