DataBinding

[Thanvir Hussain]

Hi,
Is it possible for me to databind each cell to a n object. For example, if I have a class MyClass with a MyValue property can I set something like this.

MyClass c = new MyClass();
c.MyValue = "Test";
m_Grid[3, 2].DataSource = c
m_Grid[3, 2].DisplayMember = "MyValue";
m_Grid[3, 2].ValueMember = "MyValue";

thanks

To add, I am using a GridControl not a databound grid control

Hi Thanvir,

Thank you for posting query to us.

You can use CellValue property of GridControl to set value to particular cell instead of using DataSource property.
Here is the code snippets:

clsData c1 = new clsData();
c1.Name = "Test";
gridControl1[2, 2].CellValue = c1.Name;

Please refer the sample in the link to illustrate this:

Please try this and let me know if this helps.

Hi,

I don't think you got what I was trying to convey. I was databinding a object to a cell meaning any changes done in the cell should automatically posted back to the object and vice versa.
I am now using the cellvalue property only but everytime my business object changes I have to set back the cellvalue. If I have a winform textbox then I can directly databind the object then all the intractions will be done automatically.
Hope I am clear this time.

thanks

Hi Thanvir ,

The grid does not support simple binding to a single grid cell. But you can get this behavior by using the Control celltype in a grid cell. Below is a forum thread that discuss with the similar issue.
