GroupingGrid: Get cell''s source object by clicking on the cell

[Roberto Obispo]

Hi again!

I''d like to know how to get a certain source object of a Grouping Grid by clicking on the cell that is suppossed to be displaying its info.

I can''t find a way to do this, but I''m sure that there has to be an easy way. Is there any GetData method that allow to reach the underlying data of a cell? My DataSource is an ArrayList of ArrayList, and I have a GroupingGrid with a nested table.

Thanks a lot!

Here is code you can use in teh TableControlCellClick event to get the clicked value.

'' subscribe to the event
      AddHandler Me.gridGroupingControl1.TableControlCellClick, AddressOf TableControl_CellClick


''the event handler

    Private Sub TableControl_CellClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridTableControlCellClickEventArgs)
        Dim cc As GridCurrentCell = e.TableControl.CurrentCell
        Dim style As GridTableCellStyleInfo = e.TableControl.Model(cc.RowIndex, cc.ColIndex)
        Dim recRow As GridRecordRow = style.TableCellIdentity.DisplayElement
        If Not recRow Is Nothing AndAlso Not recRow.ParentRecord Is Nothing Then
            Dim val As Object = recRow.ParentRecord.GetValue(style.TableCellIdentity.Column.MappingName)
            Console.WriteLine(val.ToString())
        End If
    End Sub

Looks like the checks in teh above code are not sufficient. Try this code instead.

Private Sub TableControl_CellClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridTableControlCellClickEventArgs)
        Dim cc As GridCurrentCell = e.TableControl.CurrentCell
        Dim style As GridTableCellStyleInfo = e.TableControl.Model(cc.RowIndex, cc.ColIndex)
        If style.TableCellIdentity.TableCellType = GridTableCellType.RecordFieldCell Or style.TableCellIdentity.TableCellType = GridTableCellType.AlternateRecordFieldCell Then
            Dim recRow As GridRecordRow = style.TableCellIdentity.DisplayElement
            Dim val As Object = recRow.ParentRecord.GetValue(style.TableCellIdentity.Column.MappingName)
            Console.WriteLine(val.ToString())
        End If
    End Sub

Works great! Thanks a lot, Clay.

I''ve finally used

recRow.GetData()

to get the source record.

Again, thank you very much for your support!
