A very odd problem...

[Jim Frapper]

Hey Clay,

This is going to be a nice and juicy on for you. I am using a non databound grid. Essentially, the crux of my problem is this....

The following line returns no data when there is data in the control:

this.grdAppointments[range.Top, 4].CellValue.ToString()

Now when I step past this code in the debugger and the form desplays, there is a data value in the cell.

The value in the cell is a dollar amount. This column is of type Currency. The code that checks this column is in a cells_changed event handler. I can keep reproducing this behavior fine.

I have attached the event handler in snippet.cs. Basically when column 3 is changed, I have to update column 4. If you have an questions about the snippet let me know.

Clay,
Can you try n see if
this.grdAppointments[range.Top, 4].CellText.ToString()
works for you ?
I think it should.

Hey Clay and Supriya Thakur,

Thats whats so odd, it does work for me! Only when I first add a row to the grid. Here is how I reproduce it.

- Add fresh row to grid.
- Change column 3 to a new price. Everything works fine.
- Change price to $12. Everything works fine.
- Change price to $10. The code referred to previously now brings back nothing. No matter what I cange column 3 to, column 4 never returns any value even though I can see a value there.

Note: If there are other rows in the grid, they have the same pattern of failure.

Very odd indeed...

I do have the source version of the codebase if you care to point me on where to look....

Cheers,
JF
