Hi Joan,
Thanks for the reply. It was really helpful.But the problem now is
that the datagridcolumn rating is picking 'b' or 'i' or 'e' from the
array collection and now I have to map 'b' to 'beginner' in the
combobox. Similary I have to map 'i' to 'intermediate' in combobox
and similary I have to map 'e' to 'expert' in combobox. How to get on
with it?
