Based on my understanding, what Sheng Jiang has advised is practical. DataGridViewComboBoxColumn can work perfectly as you like.

I would like to suggest you write code like following:


1.       Initialize two BindingSources, and bind them separately to Designation_Master and Employee_Master

Code Snippet    

connection = new SqlConnection("Data Source=.\\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=E:\\temp\\MyDatabaseData2.MDF;Integrated " +

            "Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True");

            // Initialization on table1.

            command1 = new SqlCommand("select Employee_Designation from Designation_Master;", connection);

            dataAdapter1 = new SqlDataAdapter();

            bindingSource1 = new BindingSource();

            dataAdapter1.SelectCommand = command1;

            dataAdapter1.Fill(Designation_Table);

            bindingSource1.DataSource = Desination_Table;


            // Initialization on table2.

            command2 = new SqlCommand("select Employee_Name from Employee_Master;", connection);

            dataAdapter2 = new SqlDataAdapter();

            bindingSource2 = new BindingSource();

            dataAdapter2.SelectCommand = command2;

            dataAdapter2.Fill(Employee_Table);

            bindingSource2.DataSource = Employee_Table;
 

2.       Bind two ComboBoxColumn separately to these two BindingSources.


Code Snippet            this.Column1.DataSource = bindingSource1;

            this.Column1.DisplayMember = "Employee_Designation";

 

            this.Column2.DataSource = bindingSource2;

            this.Column2.DisplayMember = "Employee_Name";



3.       Implement DataGridView.EditingControlShowing event, in order to make lists of values up to date.


Code Snippet       private void dataGridView1_EditingControlShowing(object sender, DataGridViewEditingControlShowingEventArgs e)

        {

            bindingSource1.EndEdit();

            bindingSource2.EndEdit();

            bindingSource1.ResetBindings(false);

            bindingSource2.ResetBindings(false);

        }
