It's a very common thing. Just Google it out. Even CodeProject search itself can give you few articles on the same.

Solution 1

Get the data from SQL Server 2005 in your normal way and then set the DataSource for the DataGridViewComboBoxColumn to the data you have retrieved.

       DataGridViewComboBoxColumn comboBoxCol1 = new DataGridViewComboBoxColumn();
       DataGridViewTextBoxColumn comboBoxCol2 = new DataGridViewTextBoxColumn();
       //DataGridViewComboBoxColumn comboBoxCol2 = new DataGridViewComboBoxColumn();
       DataRow dr = null;
       private void FirstRow(int rc)
       {
           //dt.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Property", typeof(DataGridViewComboBoxColumn)));
           //dt.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Operator", typeof(DataGridViewComboBoxColumn)));
           //dt.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Value", typeof(string)));
           //dt.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Options", typeof(string)));
           for (int i = 0; i < rc; i++)
           {
               dr = dt.NewRow();
               //dr["Value"] = string.Empty;
               //dr["Options"] = string.Empty;
               dt.Rows.Add(dr);
           }
           dgridProperties.DataSource = dt;
           comboBoxCol.HeaderText = "Property";
           comboBoxCol.Name = "CmbProperty";
           dgridProperties.Columns.Insert(0, comboBoxCol);
           comboBoxCol1.HeaderText = "Operator";
           comboBoxCol1.Name = "CmbOperator";
           dgridProperties.Columns.Insert(1, comboBoxCol1);
           //ds = dc.FillGridview("select MpID,[Name] as 'Name' from morepropertiesgeneration");
           ds = dc.FillGridview("select ObjID,[ObjectName] as 'Name' from ObjectTypes");
           comboBoxCol2.HeaderText = "Value";
           comboBoxCol2.Name = "CmbValue";
           dgridProperties.Columns.Insert(2, comboBoxCol2);
           comboBoxCol.DataSource = ds.Tables[0];
           comboBoxCol.DisplayMember = "Name";
           comboBoxCol.ValueMember = "Name";
           //comboBoxCol.ValueMember = "MpID";
       }
