Can you explain your question clearly?
What do you want to achieve is not clear.
You have a repeating grid which is sourced from a pagelist.Then?
Do you want to change the source of repeating grid to Report Definition? If YES it is possible.
If you have a column as a drop down field and want to source it with a report Definition ?If YES it is possible.
If you have a column as a text input and want to source it with anything? Its not possible.

Hi,
Please check the example under UI Gallery. The RepeatingGrid uses ReportDefinition to get data. See snapshot attached.
DesignerStudio -> User Interface -> UI Gallery -> Grid -> click on link 'View design-time configuration' to view the configuration.

I believe your requirement is to mention/update the source for one of the columns which is a textinput.
There is no provision to specify source for a TextInput, but you may use Auto-Complete, which gives a similar look and feel and let users enter data for searching.

If you are not supposed to display the list in dropdown to user, I believe you can put below CSS in External Style field in Representation tab of field property.
This will disable your dropdown and will show only one value that you want to show i.e. that you can configure by putting default value in field property.
CSS:: disabled:disabled

>>
my requirment is
when value change in drop down list i want to get value from no 3(only get value) to calculate value and store it in one of property in page list cheers
In that case what is the point of having it as part of your grid ? You can use it externally and just pass the parameter on selection of the value from dropdown and referesh the screen so that your calculated values gets populated
