Public Overrides Sub InitializeEditingControl(ByVal rowIndex As Integer, ByVal initialFormattedValue As Object, ByVal dataGridViewCellStyle As DataGridViewCellStyle) ' Set the value of the editing control to the current cell value. MyBase.InitializeEditingControl(rowIndex, initialFormattedValue, dataGridViewCellStyle)

    Dim ctl As ComboEditingControl = CType(DataGridView.EditingControl, ComboEditingControl)

    ctl.DropDownStyle = ComboBoxStyle.DropDown
    ctl.AutoCompleteSource = AutoCompleteSource.ListItems
    ctl.AutoCompleteMode = System.Windows.Forms.AutoCompleteMode.Suggest



    If (Me.DataGridView.Rows(rowIndex).Cells(0).Value <> Nothing) Then

        Dim GetValueFromRowToUseForBuildingCombo As String = Me.DataGridView.Rows(rowIndex).Cells(0).Value.ToString()

        ctl.Items.Clear()

        Dim dt As New DataTable()
        Try
            dt = TryCast(DirectCast(Me.DataGridView.Columns(ColumnIndex), ComboColumn).DataSource, DataTable)
        Catch ex As Exception
            MsgBox("error")
        End Try

        If (dt Is Nothing) Then


            ctl.Items.Add("")
        Else
            Dim thing As DataRow
            For Each thing In dt.Rows
                ctl.Items.Add(thing(0).ToString)
            Next

        End If


        If Me.Value Is Nothing Then
            ctl.SelectedIndex = -1
        Else
            ctl.SelectedItem = Me.Value
        End If
        ctl.EditingControlDataGridView = Me.DataGridView
    End If
End Sub

from code:

Dim widgets As New WidgetDataHandler
        Dim obj = widgets.GetAllWigetTypes()

        Dim dt As New DataTable
        Dim ListofmyObjects As New List(Of widget_types)(obj)
        Dim objList As New cObjectToTable(Of widget_types)(ListofmyObjects)


        dt = objList.GetTable()
      
        Dim obj1
        For Each obj1 In obj
            blPersons.Add(obj1)
        Next

       
        Dim col1 As New DataGridViewTextBoxColumn
        col1.DisplayIndex = 0
        col1.DataPropertyName = "Id"
        col1.HeaderText = "Id"

        dgvi00.Columns.Add(col1)



        Dim col2 As New ComboColumn
        col2.DisplayIndex = 1
        col2.SortMode = DataGridViewColumnSortMode.Automatic
        col2.HeaderText = "Name"
        col2.DataPropertyName = "Name"
        col2.ToolTipText = "Select something from my combo"

        Dim dst As New DataSet
        'Dim dt1 As New DataTable

        'dt1.Columns.Add(col2.HeaderText)
        'For Each thing In dt.Rows
        '    MsgBox(thing(1).ToString)
        '    dt1.Rows.Add(thing(1).ToString)
        'Next

        dst.Tables.Add(dt)
        col2.DataSource = dst.Tables(0)
        col2.DisplayMember = "Name"
        Me.dgvi00.Columns.AddRange(col2)
        dgvi00.DataSource = blPersons.BindingSource



        'setup the bindings for the binding navigator
        Dim bn As New _365_Media_Library.BindingNavigatorWithFilter
        bn.Dock = DockStyle.Bottom
        bn.GripStyle = ToolStripGripStyle.Hidden
        Me.Controls.Add(bn)
        bn.BindingSource = blPersons.BindingSource

note :

its working good in standalone application
