VB6 DataGrid and 'the' button

[MrJTP]

VB allows one to add a button to a datagrid column at design time but I cannot find any description of how to populate a drop down list that might result from clicking the button at run time. I've read every book on VB6 I own, checked the MSDN, read FAQs, etc. I've spent the last hour cruising this site looking but, alas, I still don't know how to populate that list (or even if its possible).

I would appreciate help even if it only points me toward a good book that deals with the subject.

thanks

Try this article from Microsoft Technet (It was very helpful when I was dealing with the same issue):

After a long gap in this area, a very lucid readymade control, named Hotkey DataGridPlus, is now available at

http://www.hot-soft.com

This control adds to the functionality of Microsoft DataGrid, is very easy to use, and is capable of handling data aware combo boxes, column size and capital letter convertion while entry.

If this is of your use...
