Answer 1

You can define the cell as a combo-box in the DEFINE BROWSE statement.

DEFINE BROWSE brComboBox
  QUERY qTT DISPLAY
    fieldA
    fieldB
    fieldC VIEW-AS COMBO-BOX LIST-ITEMS "a,b,c,d"
    fieldD 
      ENABLE fieldC
    WITH NO-ROW-MARKERS SEPARATORS SIZE 70 BY 4.5 FONT 10 FIT-LAST-COLUMN.

If you're working with the AppBuilder GUI you simply edit the DISPLAY portion of the browse so it contains all fields:

  fieldA
  fieldB
  fieldC VIEW-AS COMBO-BOX LIST-ITEMS "a,b,c,d"
  fieldD 
    ENABLE fieldC
