Focus on row following data refresh

[Mike Reynolds]

Hello-

I do data refreshing in my derived grid via. a right click -> refresh function that simply gets a fresh DataTable and attaches it to the grids .DataSource, thereby replacing the previously attached DataTable. I preserve the current .Sort and then apply it to the newly attached DataTable, which works fine. However, I'm not exactly sure of the most efficient method for going to the previously selected row and making sure said row is focused in the grids view. I'm connecting to back-end tables with, potentially, thousands of records.

Oh yea, all tables contain a primary key identity field.

Thank You

Can you get based on the primary key the position of the row in the new datasource?

If you have the position in the datasource you can use grid.Binder.ListManagerPositionToRowIndex(pos) to get the row index at which the record is displayed and then call CurrentCell.MoveTo passing in the row index.

Let me know if I misunderstood you.
