Grouping control not saving values

Hello, I have a dropdown form that has a grouping control and two buttons - OK and (guess which?..) Cancel. THe development was done about a month ago. Now I just need to add a static message to the form. But whenever I do anything on the form (even merely change size of the form), the grouping control stops working. One of its column has numbers, which are initialy all zeroes; so I enter another number, as soon as I move a cursor to another cell, the changed value turns back to zero. In other words, it just does not save values, although I can see values passed to it in the CurrentRecordContextChange event handler when I step through the code. Any thoughts on that?

>>DropDown form What does this mean? Are you calling form.Show/ShowDialog to display a form from a button on another form? Or, are you using some kind of Popup control to display a form? You might check how each control is parented. This might affect focus issues and validation which may be affecting this problem. If you can upload a sample project showing the problem, we can try to debug it hear.

Clay, There is a main GDBG that has some row cells of type dropdowncell, so this is the dropdown window that contains a form that has a Grouping control in it. I''ve just tried to add a static message to the form and all of a sudden the Grouping Grid is not working. I did some investigation, and it seems that it executes handlers to TableControlCurrentCellValidateString and CurrentRecordContextChange events, but never gets to execute a handler of SaveCellFormattedText event. It all works fine until I change anything on the form. I will try to extract some code to upload for your analysis, but do you have any idea why is it started happening? >>>DropDown form > >What does this mean?

I got it. It was Visual Studio that was kicking out a reference to SaveFormattedText event handler, hence it was not called. My Regards.
