To reproduce: GridViewMultiComboBoxColumn supplierColumn = new GridViewMultiComboBoxColumn(); supplierColumn.SyncSelectionWithText = true; supplierColumn.Name = "SupplierColumn"; supplierColumn.HeaderText = "Supplier"; supplierColumn.DropDownStyle = Telerik.WinControls.RadDropDownStyle.DropDown; supplierColumn.AutoCompleteMode = AutoCompleteMode.Append; supplierColumn.DataSource = this.suppliersBindingSource; supplierColumn.ValueMember = "SupplierID"; supplierColumn.DisplayMember = "ContactName"; supplierColumn.FieldName = "SupplierID"; supplierColumn.Width = 200; this.radGridView1.Columns.Add(supplierColumn); Select the new row and try to enter some text that is not valid and press Enter. You will notice the new row is added with the last valid auto-completed value. Workaround: cancel the UserAddingRow event if the entered text is not valid.
Hi,
This behavior was originally reported more than ten years ago, and we haven’t noticed significant demand or follow-up from the community since then. Also, there is a feasible workaround that can be applied. As a result, we currently plan to prioritize improvements that have a broader impact and are more widely requested.
I marked this thread as "Declined". If this limitation is still affecting your scenario, please share additional context or use cases.
