You can write your own column type. Look at the DataGridComboBox sample
on GOTDOTNET - dump the combobox part and change the paint event to
paint an underline under your text

Subject: [DOTNET] Help! How can I hyperlink from Windows datagrid?

Hello all,

I'm really desperate for a solution.  The Windows datagrid control
provides
pretty much all the functionality I need (though it's still a bit buggy)
EXCEPT for the ability to have a hyperlink column.  The web form of this
control provides that ability, but unless I'm missing something, the
Windows
version does not.  I currently just have the user click somewhere on a
row,
and I catch the MouseUp event, and do the branch, but that's not a good
solution.  It provides no visual cue to the user that they should click
in
that location.  Also, it provides no visual cue as to which rows they
have
clicked on, while hyperlinks show a different color for links that have
been
used.

Should I abandon the datagrid, and write my own control?  Are there
third-party datagrid controls without this limitation?  Am I missing
something altogether?

Any insights would be very much appreciated.

Thanks,

James Gibson
