Solution 1

not possible

you can not add controls in datagridview cell

so, you should go with some third party controls
e.g
telerik, devExpress

else use table layout panel it will give look like table (not grid)
but you can manually code it in manner that it work as gridview.

hope it help
Happy Coding!
:)

DataGridView1.Columns.Add("ID", "Product ID")
DataGridView1.Columns.Add("Name", "Product Name")

'---create a new bindingsource control---
Dim bindingsource As New BindingSource
'---add the items into the control---
bindingsource.Add("Type A")
bindingsource.Add("Type B")
bindingsource.Add("Type C")
'---create a combobox column---
Dim comboBoxCol As New DataGridViewComboBoxColumn
Dim chk As New DataGridViewCheckBoxColumn()

chk.HeaderText = "Check Data"
chk.Name = "chk"
' DataGridView1.Rows(2).Cells(3).Value = True
'---set the header---
comboBoxCol.HeaderText = "Types"
'---data bind it---
comboBoxCol.DataSource = bindingsource
'---add a combobox column to the DataGridView control---
DataGridView1.Columns.Add(comboBoxCol)
DataGridView1.Columns.Add(chk)

comboboxColumn.DisplayMember = "colnm";
comboboxColumn.ValueMember = "colid";
