Hi friends
 
I have DataGridView in Window form. There is one column which is binding with Text row and Image Row. Column Type is GridViewTextBoxColumn.
But my requirement is that Value is either in Text format or Image format. If it is Text Format then it display but if it is image format then how to bind that image in same column.
 
For example
foreach (MyClassObject q in qList)
{
   if (q.IsImage){
         gridMC.Rows[c].Cells[1].Value = q.ImageValue; // Image Object
   }else{
         gridMC.Rows[c].Cells[1].Value = q.TextValue;
   }
}
//gridMC is my GridView
 
Thanks
Imrankhan

Why don't you keep 2 columns. One for text and other for image. And depending upon your requirement you just change the visibility.
if you want to show image column then change its visibility to true and text column to false and vice-versa.

the few ways
1. go and get a commercial component like infragistics wingrid that fits your needs
2. search for something called "textimagecolumn", a some guy has implemented a (maybe not suitable) solution in this manner...
3. write your own custom column class, e.g. overwrite the paint event an paint cells yourself
4. wait till the microsoft guys come across this flaw
5. or die meanwhile Wink | ;-)
 
I have to struggle with this myself. It's a damn shame this clumsy, inconvenient implementation of the datagridview.
