Hi ,
I am developing a ASP.NET web application in which I am using a
datagridview. It is an editable gridview. My grid has almost 5000 items and
i am required to show these items in a single page (using a scrollable div).
One of the columns of the datagridview is Combobox column. Combobox column
works fine until there are only a few records in the grid. But for 5000
records it is not showing
the comboboxes properly.(Means when scrolling some combos disappear)

It's the number of items, causing the problems.

5000 dropdowns on a page? Ouch! Personally, I'd reject such a design
proposal from a customer on account of it being unfeasible.

Obviously!

What I normally do in such circumstances is explain that I will have to
double or even triple the price for support and maintenance because of the
number of support calls that I'm bound to get because of the stupid
design...
