This can get little tricky. You need to have an itemRenderer, that when triggered by set data() (actually do the work in commitProperties) loops over the combo box data provider until it matches the current column+line data item value, then sets the selectedIndex of the combo box. Thate are several examples of this available. I have one here:

Doing it for a one-off, with a hard coded data field and dataProvider is much simpler.

How do you do it?
