GDB Textbox

[Administrator]

Hi

I would like to have a textbox as one of my columns in my DBG. I can add the textbox column without problem but I would also like to restrict the users input to number between 0 and 9999. Disallow all non-numeric character input. I have tried fiddling with some of the column designer options but end up not being able to edit my column. Could you point me in the direction of the settings I need.
Many Thanks. Mark (vb.net)

Instead of using a TextBox celltype, you might try using a MaskEdit cell with mask ####.

If this does not serve your needs, you can go back to using a TextBox, and handle the CurrentCellValidateString event. In the handler, check e.Text to make sure it is a valid entry, and set e.Cance = true if it is not.

Another question. I have some code that programatically highlights a grid row, I would also like to after selecting the row to "focus" on my editable textbox column. SO that the user doestn have to click inside the grid cell to begin the editing process. Is there a way I can achieve this?

Thanks. Mark (vb.net)

You can try

grid.CurrentCell.MoveTo(someRow, someCol, GridSetCurrentCellOptions.SetFocus);
