DataGridView linked to DataTable with Combobox column based on enum

Question

Having spent a lot of yesterday searching on this one I have to give up.

I have a DataGridView linked to a Datatable. One of the columns is an enum and I want that t

Answer 1

Using RosieC's code I still get the exception when the underlying type of an enum is not an Int32. This can be fixed with a minor modification:

public static DataTable Enum2DataTable()
{
    DataTable EnumTable = new DataTable();
    EnumTable.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Value", Enum.GetUnderlyingType(typeof(T))));
    EnumTable.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Display", System.Type.GetType("System.String")));
    DataRow EnumRow;
    foreach (T E in Enum.GetValues(typeof(T)))
    {
        EnumRow = EnumTable.NewRow();
        EnumRow["Value"] = E;
        EnumRow["Display"] = E.ToString();
        EnumTable.Rows.Add(EnumRow);
    }

    return EnumTable;
}
