Changing other columns value onselectedvaluechanged event in combobox in XtraGridView

Question

Is there a way to get handle of row of which the selectionvalue is changed in combobox?

Let me try to explain it using example. In GridView, I have two columns, Name, Type

Type column has combobox, with values 1 and 2.

What I want to do is on selecting value 1 in type column , I want to change the Name to "One"

On selecting 2 in type column, I want to change the Name to "Two"

This is what I was trying,

 private void OnType_SelectedValueChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
    DevExpress.XtraEditors.ComboBoxEdit comboType = sender as DevExpress.XtraEditors.ComboBoxEdit;
    DataRow row = (DataRow) myGridView.GetFocusedRow();            
    if (comboType .SelectedItem.ToString() == "1") 
            {
                 row.Name = "one";
            }else
            {
             row.Name = "two";
             }
   }

But here I am getting myGridView.GetFocusedRow() as null.

What am I doing wrong?

Correct way is to bind a repository editor to column.

RepositoryItemComboBox riCmb = new RepositoryItemComboBox();

Handle the editvaluechanged event

riCmb.EditValueChanged += riCmb_EditValueChanged;

Then inside the event handler

if(myGridView.GetRowCellValue(myGridView.FocusedRowHandle, "FieldName").ToString() == "1")
{
      grvInstruments.SetRowCellValue(grvInstruments.FocusedRowHandle, "FieldName", "One");
}
