Using a DataGridColumnStyle is the best way to do this. That's what they're there for - to customize the data-bindable cells in a DataGrid. There's an easy article about this in MSDN posted a few months ago at http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/03/08/DataGrids/default.aspx[^]. If you don't want to use this mechanism, then handle the DataGrid.CurrentCellChanged event, determine if you should show a ComboBox for the current cell, then add a ComboBox to the DataGrid's container's Controls collection with a higher TabStop than the DataGrid, and size the ComboBox to match the cell's extents. This is a really poor way of handling this and I'm not guaranteeing that it'll work.
