pasting values into a summary cell

[Anthony Avella]

I''m having a problem with pasting values into editable summary cells. My summary cell is a textbox cell type (col.Appearance.AnyCell.CellType = "TextBox";). I''m trying to paste a value into that cell. All of my pasting needs to be done via ctrl-v.

If the cell I''m trying to paste into is the grid''s current/highlighted cell and there is no cursor blinking in the cell, I''m able to paste with no problems (replacing the old value).

If there is a cursor blinking in the cell I''m trying to paste to, I can paste, but the the new data is added to the cell, but the old data remains as well.

If I highlight the data in the cell and try pasting, nothing happens.

How can I paste into a cell, replacing the old value in the last 2 scenarios?

Thanks.

When the cell is actively editing, it is the cell control that handles the keys and would manage the paste. I am not sure what you are doing to get editable summary cells, but for editable recordfieldcells, handling TableControlCurentCellControlKeyMessage allows you to catch the ctl+V and handle teh paste.

private void gridGroupingControl1_TableControlCurrentCellControlKeyMessage(object sender, Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.Grouping.GridTableControlCurrentCellControlKeyMessageEventArgs e)
{
	Keys keyCode = (Keys) ((int)e.Inner.Msg.WParam) & Keys.KeyCode;
	if(e.Inner.Msg.Msg == 0x100 && keyCode == Keys.V && 0 != (Control.ModifierKeys & Keys.Control))
	{
		GridTextBoxCellRenderer cr = e.TableControl.CurrentCell.Renderer  as GridTextBoxCellRenderer;
		if(cr != null && cr.TextBox.Text.Length == cr.TextBox.SelectionLength)
		{
			if(Clipboard.GetDataObject().GetDataPresent(typeof(string)))
			{
				string s = (string)Clipboard.GetDataObject().GetData(typeof(string));
				cr.TextBox.SelectedText = s;
				e.Inner.Handled = true;
				e.Inner.Result = true;
			}
		}
	}
}

Thanks.

This solution works for 2 out of 3 scenarios.

The only scenario it does not work for is:

If there is a cursor blinking in the summary/caption cell I''m trying to paste to, I can paste, but the the new data is added to the cell, but the old data remains as well.

Any ideas?

Try this. Instead of

cr.TextBox.SelectedText = s;

Try

cr.TextBox.SelectedAll();
cr.TextBox.SelectedText = s;
