Hi all,

I would like to have a column with button to call some function when clicked.
I had read on the forum from this web, but i stil cannot see the button appear?

To add a button/ cell button, do i only change the combolist value to "..."?

What could be wrong?

You have to set c1FlexGrid1.Cols[x].ComboList = "..."; and make sure AllowEditing is true for the column.

Also note by default the button is only visible when the cell has focus.  Use this line of code to make the buttons always visible

c1FlexGrid1.ShowButtons = ShowButtonsEnum.Always;

You could instead use the HostedControl class (part of HostControls sample) to embed buttons down a column.  This allows complete customization of the buttons.  I've attached a sample that shows this technique.
