I have an ultradropdown in an ultrawingrid that is populated using the datatable. Now i am trying to implement functionality where previously stored data is being loaded to edit. How can i set the ultradropdown to a specific row or value. I am inserting the data into the corresponding datatable but the ultradropdown doesnt seem to be set to that value when it displays
Hi,
I'm not sure I understand the question. the UltraDropDown does not have a single value - it's a list.
The selected item on the dropdown is determined by the Value of the cell in the grid. The DropDown cannot maintain a value, because the dropdown services multiple cells and therefore multiple values.
Usually have a hidden column for the value that the user selects (id, as value member) for that column and display the value as text in the column that you show it to the user (display member).
