I have 2 objects (see classes bellow, I also added my form code) : PartyType and Personne

Personne has a PartyType property.

I want to be able to databind a collection<Personne> to your grid.

I want to be able to edit the PartyType of a Personne object using a combobox in the grid that would list the available type and style be databound to the underlying collection.

So instead of having a textbox showing : Test.DataObject.PartyType

I would like to have a combobox showing the value of PartyType.ID for the Personne object of that row. The comboBox still need to be databound to the underlying datasource.

Is this possible ?
