(This question is narrower in scope than this question I asked earlier.)

Say I have a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn, and want to switch the style of the ComboBox control between DropDownList and DropDown (mainly for the text field editing capability). I'd like to do this on a row-by-row basis (at the DataGridViewComboBoxCell level).

How would I do that programatically?

Or maybe a different way of asking: How do I access the ComboBox control given an object of type DataGridViewComboBoxCell?

(I'm in VB 2005.)

Thanks as always.
