Preventing Column Auto Sort After Editing A Bound DataGridView
Jun 26, 2009
I've got a DataGridView that has a DataTable as it's Datasource. Whenever I sort a column and then edit a cell, after editing the column, the column autosorts so the recently edited cell is no longer in the viewable area. Is there any way to prevent this auto sort from happening and only sort when I click on the columns?
I have a few classes, one is a form, the other is the source of the datagridview. I want to be able to sort the columns of the datagridview by clicking on the header. Here are the classes that I am dealing with:
Imports DiscoveryByte.AddTools.Misc_Tools Public Class ViewDiscoveryFlashCards Private DBBindingSource As New BindingSource
How to sort items in ListView by column bound to an Observable Collection ?I've looked all over the place and I can't find anything easy enough or simple on this.
Still experimenting with datagrids and ran into another problem...I'd like to sort a column displayed in a datagrid bound to an Access table programmatically. The field is a date ime type and is sorted in descending order in Access. I can manually sort it at run time but i'd like to know how to sort it with code.
I have been experimenting with datagridview by designing a bill tracking program. The first challenge I haven't been able to solve myself is how to sort it. I managed to figure out how to save and update from xml but I don't know how to put it in any particular order. Is this possible with it bound, or would I need to write particular code to custom-fill in the date grid? All I am looking for is an a-z sort.
It seems that on clicking datagridview column header, the column will be automatically sorted based on the column type. I have a column showing some numbers. If column type is string, it sorts "1","20","3" into "1","20","3". If column type is double, it sorts into "1","3","20" which is the result that I want. However, there might be some erros in the numbers and error messages(text) will show in the cell instead of numbers. So I cannot set the column type as double. I want to ignore these error messages and sort all the numbers. How can I do this?
Also, I need to add some background colors to different rows in datagridview. So in the column header click event, I call the bkgColor Sub to achieve this. My question is that how can I override the sorting method in this event?

I have a DataGridView (dgv) on a Windows form (VB.NET) which is bound to a datatable. One of the bound columns is a an ID (Foreign Key) to another datatable. All I want to do is Hide the ID column and populate an unbound column with the Name (ParmName) for the user. I searched the foreign value in the datatable and retrieved the information. I set the Value of the cell in the Datarow. All works well, but does not display. The cell accepts the value...I can even Debug.Print the values to the console. They are there just nothing displaying in DataGridView. Nothing odd about DataGridView. Should be straight forward...
My Code , Dim dtParm As DataTable = MyDataSet.tblParameter Dim dgv As DataGridView = Me.dgvResultNum_DataGrid
I want to only allow editing of one column in my DataGridView, but I want to allow the user to double click on any item in the row, and when the CellBeginEdit fires, force editing of my colum. I started by doing this:
Private Sub dgvCaptions_CellBeginEdit(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellCancelEventArgs) Handles dgvCaptions.CellBeginEdit If e.ColumnIndex <> COL_CAPTION Then[code].....
But this throws an error in the BeginEdit(False) line because 'Operation is not valid because it results in a reentrant call to the BeginEdit function.' which of course it will do, but that is what I want. Is there another way to do this?
I'm having problems editing the text of a particular column in a datagridview from the front end. The text enters ok but as soon as the cell loses focus it goes back to the old value. The datagrid view readonly property is set to false and I don't have any problem writing to the other columns.
I have a string field, EventAction, that is in the database.I want that column to be a combobox column.I want to add the different EventActions to the list and let the user select the action they desire.
i have a DataGridView responsible for showing a bit of data and two of my columns allow for user input using comboboxes.The trouble is that one column only needs to show preset values in it's list, but the other needs to both show the presets and allow for the user to enter in their own values.i accomplish this by showing the editing control for the combobox with this bit of code:
Private Sub DGV_EditingControlShowing(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewEditingControlShowingEventArgs) Handles DGV.EditingControlShowing
I am populating a datagridview from a datatable and that is working fine. I wish to add some calculated columns from data in the datatable. At first, I did this by adding these to the table, but that makes it difficult to update the Access database. These lines are commented out.Right now, AWt and DOF are not working. The values are there when I step through (lines 85-87), but the values are not put in the grid. The value of NWt is placed in the grid as it should be.Lines 236 through 254 set up the new unbound columns. 85-87 should populate them.

I have a data bound datagridview. I want to be able to have column 3 default value is = 0, column 4 default value is = 1 and column 5 default value is = 0. How can I do This. I just dragged the table onto the form visual basics data source panel. I have 20 different colums some have 0's, some have 1's adn some ave 2's. While entering the data, well it takes
I need to display an two-column editable grid not bound to a database. I took a look at ListView with Mode=Details, but it appears that only cells in the first column can be edited. I then took a look at DataGridView, and am having two issues:
1. When editing a cell, it adds a new row: [url] How can I prevent this?
2. I don't like the grey background and would like the grid to fill the whole space, right and below.
BTW, if you know of a good tutorial on using the DataGridView unbound, I'm interested. [Code]
I am trying to display a football league table in datagridview. my code gets that data for each column from ms access and displays it in datagridview. I want to sort rows according to the value of the "pts" column.I've tried using using BindingSource.Sort = "pts" but this has had no effect.
Is it possible, out of the box, to sort a .NET DataGridView column using only the keyboard?I understand there is a SelectionMode property, but changing this merely allows me to select, using Shift+Space, an entire row or column, but this doesn't have the same effect as clicking the header with the mouse and causing a sort.The reason I ask is because I am working on accessibility issues and would like to avoid relying on the mouse.
I have a column with dates on it and I'm trying to sort it according to that.[code]I tried to use this but it only sorts by the first two digits, dd, and not with the full date.
I have a datagridview that is populated from an Oracle 11g DB. What I would like to do is add the values of a column together and display the results in a textbox. What would be the easiest way to do this?
Dim row As Integer = 0 For row = 0 To pdgvDataGridView.RowCount - 1 pdgvDataGridView.Rows(row).Cells(0).Value = row + 1Next
it's to add auto number into first column of each row. The codes running well, but after the codes completed, the first column of each row remain empty.
I have a datagrid control in my winform application. It has nearly 30 columns. First 2 column are frozen and others can be views using scrollbars.
Its working fine.
I would like to add some functionality on it by allowing user to select a column from column list above and making the datagrid scroll to that column automatically.
So i would like to ask how could i make my datagrid to scroll to specified column automatically.
VB2005 - DataGridViewMaybe not a quirk, maybe more of my misunderstanding of how resizing works. But here is what i want to do. I want to display a dataset to the user in a ataGridView. By default the columns should be autosized to all cells including the headerThat's the default view but the user should be able
I have a problem when I select a portion of a string from a RichTextBox. For instance, if I have the following string: (23*6)+5 and I want to select (23*6) the "+" is also selected. I have search for a means to correct this problem, but I have not been able to find a solution.
I created a Data Source with VB.NET and Visual Studio 2005. I dragged the data source onto my dialog, and VS created the text boxes with the members of my linked Object, a System.Windows.Forms.BindingSource and a System.Windows.Forms.BindingNavigator.
I populate the List (called myList), set myList as the DataSource in the BindingSource, and things work peachy except for the fact that I want this to be read-only. If the user changes something in one of the text boxes, it saves the changes.I tried creating a read-only collection to bind to the BindingSource, but that didn't solve the problem:
[Code]...
I guess I could disable all of the text boxes, but that seems a bit heavy-handed, plus I'd probably want to change the font color so that it's easier to read. Ideally, I probably wouldn't care if users were able to set focus to the text boxes, or even edit the contents, but I just wouldn't want any changes to persist. That is, if someone edited something, used the navigator to go to the next record, and then returned, I'd want it as it was before the user played with it.
I have a databound Datagridview. The DGV is bound to a datatable of a strongly typed DataSet created using the wizard. Is there any way to re order the columns before displaying them eg: the Columns are displayed in the DGV in this other Col4, Col6, Col3, Col1,Col5, Col2
But I want to it to show as Col1, Col2, col3, Col4, Col5, Col6?
I realise that the display order followed the Column order in the database table and by extension, the datatable. I have re-arranged the columns in the Database but the Datatable still retains the old order.
On my form i use binding source bound to fields.. if a user starts to change something then hits cancel (i set all the fields to "" to clear them) and then if they choose that record again it shows nothing in the bound fields..
is there a way to reset/cancel from editing without loosing original values?
I am trying to create the code which will stop duplicate entry of an Account Number being entered in the column 'Account Number'. The user is to input an account number (three digit account number i.e 153) using an input box and this will then be printed into the A column.What is the best way to prevent duplicate account numbers being entered?
The code I have for the input/account number array so far is:
I have a DataGridView that is bound to a DataSet I created from a database table named Contacts. The Contacts table contains a field called StatusId. StatusId is a foreign key to a table called Status. The Status table contains StatusId and StatusName.
