Populating a Combobox inside a Gridview
- by Nawait
i'm having a few problems working with a gridview and a combobox inside of it.
Here is the code for my ListView control:
<ListView Height="139" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="10,158,0,0" Name="lvAppointment" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="250" MinWidth="350">
<ListView.View>
<GridView>
<GridViewColumn Header="Appointment" Width="120">
<GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<DatePicker SelectedDate="{Binding Path=Appointment}"/>
</DataTemplate>
</GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
</GridViewColumn>
<GridViewColumn Header="Type" Width="170">
<GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<ComboBox ???/>
</DataTemplate>
</GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
</GridViewColumn>
<GridViewColumn Header="Done" Width="50">
<GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding Path=Done}" IsThreeState="False"/>
</DataTemplate>
</GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
</GridViewColumn>
</GridView>
</ListView.View>
I'm popluating the list from a sql ce database via c# with the following code
using (SqlCeCommand sqlCeAppointment = new SqlCeCommand("SELECT appid,appointment,done,apptype.type FROM appointment INNER JOIN apptype ON appointment.refatid = apptype.atid WHERE refeventid = @eventid;", sqlCeConn))
{
sqlCeAppointment.Parameters.AddWithValue("@eventid", ((cListEventItem)lvEvent.SelectedItems[0]).id);
using (SqlCeDataReader sqlCeAppointmentReader = sqlCeAppointment.ExecuteReader())
{
lvAppointment.Items.Clear();
while (sqlCeAppointmentReader.Read())
{
lvAppointment.Items.Add(new cListAppointmentItem { id = sqlCeAppointmentReader.GetGuid(sqlCeTerminReader.GetOrdinal("appid")), Appointment = sqlCeAppointmentReader.GetDateTime(sqlCeTerminReader.GetOrdinal("appointment")), Type = sqlCeAppointmentReader.GetString(sqlCeTerminReader.GetOrdinal("type")), Done = sqlCeAppointmentReader.GetByte(sqlCeTerminReader.GetOrdinal("done")) });
}
}
}
I can popluate the list just fine. But i want "Type" to be a combobox so the user can select the apropriate type of the appointment (its a list of appointments connected to an event). This combobox should be filled with data thats inside a table of the sql ce database (apptype). This table is not static, the users can add and delete items from this list.
I have tried a few ways i found via google, but failed. I guess i'm having problems understanding how this works/should work.
I hope someone can help me :(
Thanks in advance
