Create a new row by copying a existing one

Question

Hello,
Ver3.2.1.0.
In GGC, I want to add a function "Create/Enter a new record/row by copying an existing row".
In details, user click any cell in GGC to select a row, then click "New row by Copying" button, it will copy all columns'' data of selected row to the new row (the row with "*" header). 
This function is like "SQL Server''s Open table"  copy/paste a row.
Is there any built-in function or sample code?
Thanks,

Hello,
I''ve built a sample to create a new row by copying. Please see attached.
Select a row first, then click "Copy" button, it will the selected row to a new row. The problem is I want to set the current record to the newly added row and put the cursor in the first cell.
Any idea to do that?
I am not sure if there are other better ways to do the same task.

Thanks,

Lan

Hi Lan,
Please try this after you add the new row to the DataTable to see if that helps.


dt.Rows.Add(rowNew);

// Set the current record
this.gridGroupingControl1.Table.Records[dt.Rows.Count-1].SetCurrent();

//Editmode
this.gridGroupingControl1.Focus();
this.gridGroupingControl1.TableControl.CurrentCell.BeginEdit();


Here is forum thread that has a sample for copy/paste in GridGroupingControl.
