what about using a rich text box as a grid cell?

protected void gvFV_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
   {
       if (e.Row.RowIndex >= 0)
       {
DropDownList ddlC = (DropDownList)e.Row.Cells[0].FindControl("ddlC");
           //bind the datasource with value and display members
       }
   }

namespace Test
{

    public class MyPicturebox : System.Windows.Forms.PictureBox
    {

        //Image changed delegate
        public delegate void ImageChanged ( Object sender, EventArgs e );

        //event raised when image changed
        public event ImageChanged OnImageChange;

        //overridden/hidden Image property with event hooked up
        public new Image Image
        {
            get { return base.Image; }
            set

                }
            }
        }

    }

    public partial class Form1 : Form

Failing that, what's the best way for an app to respond to a global key press? i.e. whatever app has focus, when the user press X do this.

I started with WM_Paste, but my app never receives that message, only WM_DrawingClipboard. I think because its not the target of the paste.

public class MyTextBox :TextBox
  {
      const int WM_PASTE = 0x302;

      protected override void WndProc(ref Message m)
      {
          if (m.Msg ==WM_PASTE)
          {
              MessageBox.Show("WM_PASTE was fired");
          }
          base.WndProc(ref m);
      }
