Folks,

I have a days of week combo column on a datagridview, and I want to select multiple values. I'm struggling to find anything useful on Google. The practical angle is a travel ticket that might be valid over a weekend or only during mid week.

If I cant find one I have a workaround where I put '...' in a command column and launch a popup when its clicked, but it runs against the look-and-feel I an creating.

Did I understand you right: you need multiple selection in combo box? (Because multiple selection is grid view is already available.)

Try to use System.Windows.Forms.ListBox instead of combo box. It has selection modes MultiSimple and MultiExtended; use the property SelectionMode.

See:
