Abstract
I see an increasing amount of posts in the ASP.NET newsgroups about how to include drop-down lists or some other form of server control in a DataGrid. This article is designed to show you how to incorporate some of these server controls and give a few examples of their usage.

The Setup DataGrid

Why use web forms?

The most obvious place for using web forms in a DataGrid is for editing. It can give you stricter control over the data that you can input, but you are not just limited to editing. I'll show you throughout this article where you can put them in for normal viewing.

Before we begin

For all of these examples we'll be using the following DataGrid -

<asp:DataGrid id="dg" runat="server"
Bordercolor="black"
gridlines="vertical"
font-names="Arial"
font-size="10pt"
HeaderStyle-BackColor="#FFCC00"
ItemStyle-BackColor="#FFCC66"
AlternatingItemStyle-BackColor="#FFFFFF"
AutoGenerateColumns="False">
<Columns>
</Columns>
</asp:datagrid>

Live Demo

Note - You may need to add some event handlers later on.
