combobox in DataGridView

[princessjasmin]

i have a datagridview with serveral columns including a combobox type column. the combobox in the datagridview is populated with values. it all works fine except ..... when picking a value from the combobox within the datagridview the user has to click on the combobox twice to get the list of possible values. i think this is because the first click is the cell being selected (or entered or gotfocus), then the 2nd click shows the values in the combobox. can anyone tell me how i can get the values in the combobox to display on the first click in the combobox column cell? there is another way of viewing values - tab to the cell then click alt-downarrow but the user has to be told this. it is more logical from a users point of view to just click on the combobox for the value list. any help would be appreciated
