Is this a known issue or some information about it?

Hi Xuemei,

The error which you have mentioned, is an indication of threading issues. Are there multiple threads involved in your appilcation? If so, please check the Knowledge Base(KB) article link below.
http://www.syncfusion.com/support/kb/grid/Default.aspx?ToDo=view&questId=78

Intermittant errors can be indications of threading issues. Any calls into the grid must be done on the thread that creates it, and you can use grid.InvokeRequired to check for this.
Here is a sample.
LoadDataBackGroundThread

Hi Haneef,

We didn't have multithread in our application.So, it should not be an multithread issue.

Any other possiblities or clues about it?

thanks again,
Xuemei

Hi Xuemei,

Thank you for your update.

I am not sure of what be might be causing this strange behavior without a working sample. Is it possible for you to upload us a minimal sample to reproduce the issue here? This will help us to analyse the issue further.

Exactly what version of Windows XP are you using?

Are you only installing Essential Grid or are you installing Essential Studio? Are you installing binaries only, or the source code version?

What version of the .NET framework and VS are you using?

Best Regards,
Haneef

hi, haneef,
thanks again.
It is not a common problem. I only encountered it once and made a dump file. It can not be reproduced any more.
I installed SyncFusion Suite 2.0.1.9. Very old version, i know. Only the Grid installed, and binary version.
i am using Windows XP professional 2002 version with SP2.
The .NET framework version is 2.0.Visual Studio is 2005.

Any way, thanks for your help,
Xuemei

Hi Xuemei,

Searching our Direct Trac database for instances of this error does show a few. The problem occurred for two reason. First one is multithreaded situations where there are calls into the grid that are not protected by grid.InvokeRequired checks. So, if you are using multithreads, you need to make sure there are no unprotected calls in the grid from a thread other than the thread that created the grid. Second one is GridRangeInfo.InternalCells() method. This GridRangeInfo.InternalCells() method problem has been resolved in Essential Version v3.2 and above, can you please try in any one of our latest version? There has been a change in the GridRangeInfo class to avoid an exception:

// From 3.2 release notes
*Added a check for top < 0 || left < 0 in GridRangeInfo.InternalCells to avoid exception being thrown.

Here is the modified GridRangeInfo.cs where we added a check for top < 0 || left < 0 in GridRangeInfo.InternalCells to avoid exception being thrown.

Best regards,
Haneef
