EndEdit Focus issue

[Mike Nohr]

I''m trying to force an update of the underlieing dataset in a databoundgrid so I can perform some pre-event validation. The issue i''m having is that when I call

this.grid.Binder.EndEdit();
this.grid.CurrentCell.EndEdit();

the focus is lost from the cell that currently has focus and focus is set to the first cell in the grid. I need a way to persist the data in the current cell and keep focus on that cell. Is there any way to achieve this?

Cheers

Hi Mike,

If BeginEdit is called after update, will that work for you.

this.grid.Binder.BeginEdit();
this.grid.CurrentCell.BeginEdit();

I do not see the currentcell focus being moved to first cell. What version of grid are you using?

Best regards,

This is the code i''m using:

this.gdgMessages.Binder.BeginEdit();
this.gdgMessages.Binder.EndEdit();
this.gdgMessages.CurrentCell.BeginEdit();
this.gdgMessages.CurrentCell.EndEdit();

This seems to have resolved the changing of focus however it only seems to update the underlieing dataset on fields with checkboxes.

The problem is that I have a text entry field if I type something new in that field without leaving that field I can''t seem to persist that data to the dataset. The above code doesn''t appear to achieve this. Any suggestions?

I''m using grid 3.3.0.0

Hi Mike,

Try this way.

this.gridDataBoundGrid1.CurrentCell.EndEdit();
this.gridDataBoundGrid1.Binder.EndEdit();

this.Adapter.Update(this.DataSet);

this.gridDataBoundGrid1.Binder.BeginEdit();
this.gridDataBoundGrid1.CurrentCell.BeginEdit();

Let me know if you still find issues.

Best regards,
Stanley

Thanks Stanley!

Worked like a charm.

One more question for ya...

If I wanted to persist an entire rows worth of data instead of just a cell what might the syntax for that look like?

Cheers
