Hi guys..
firstly does the ultracombo have the the folloing functionality: rowselectors,groupby,columnswapping?
If so how do i set these properties... i tried and cant get it to work.???

1) im using the ultracombo as a editor component to a ultrawingrid that uses a ultrarowedittemplate. I find when doing a custom search in the filter of the ultracombo the combo's dropdown list close's but when i click on the dropdown button after applying the filter it opens with the values that i searched for... is there a way to keep the dropdown list open while doing the custom filter? i noticed when cancelling out the custom filter the dropdown remains open.
2) in my afterrowinsert event of the ultrawingrid how can i populate the contents of my cell that has the editorcomponent of a ultracombo with the first available record in the ultracombo. - this will only be in the case of a new record. i want to default the cell value to the first record in the ultracombo without having the user select a record from the ultracombo.
Hello Burmo,
The ultraCombo does not support these features, If you like I could log them as new product ideas.
1) I am not sure what you mean here - are you using the AutoComplete feature of the ultraCombo? It seems to me that you are talking of an editor's feature here - the ultraComboEditor. It has this functionality when you have set 'AutoCompleteMode' to Suggest and 'AutoSUggestFilterMode' to Contains for example.
2) You could hook to the InitializeRow event of the grid and do something like the following:
e.Row.Cells["Combo"].Value = "Something";
This way you could assign the first value of the combo to every cell in the WinGrid and it will be then selected in the WinCombo.
Hi Boris
Think those features will be awesome functionality for that control... yes please submit them as new product ideas...
1) yes im using the autocomplete function of the ultracombo(not comboeditor) and it doesnt have the 'AutoSuggestFilteMode' function.. im using version 9.2.... ??????
2) in the AfterRowInsert event of the grid (when adding a new row only) i need to get the first value that would be in the ultracombo (editorcomponent for a particular cell)... to default a value in that particular cell.... your code does not help me.. as i dont know what the first value in the combo might be???
thanks
First - sorry for the multiple posts, that is for delimiting the functionalities and better further finding from our community members.
As to your other questions -
1) This functionality has been added in version 10.3 of Net Advantage and above.
2) You could use, I believe:
ultraCombo1.Rows[0].Cells[0].Value
Please feel free to let me know if a question about our toolset comes up on your mind.
Thank you for the feedback, I will be waiting to see if you were able to get this working. Meanwhile please do not hesitate if you have any other ideas.
You could use the 'LimitToList' functionality of the Combo control, please take a look at the following link:

Hi Boris...
For the Ultracombo i have the dropdownstyle set to dropdownlist and i have the AutoCompletMode set to "SuggestAppend" However the user can still type something into the combo that doesnt exist in the dropdown... is there a way to prevent this? or can you please give me an example of using the ultravalidator to check for what ever the user put into the combo is actually in the dropdownlist.
