View 4 RepliesI have a WinForms DataGridView control on a form. There are two fields in this DataGridControl:
Email Address
Resolved Email Address (calculated based on the input in Email Address)
After the user inputs or changes a value in Email Address, I want the value in Resolved Email Address to update based on a separate method. What event should I tie in to so that that the Resolved Email Address cell is updated after the Email Address cell is updated?I'm not sure where to put the event because the user could do a number of things after adding/changing a value: tab to the next cell, click cancel on the form, click ok on the form, etc.
I have a DataGridView bound to a DataTable that has 1+16 columns defined as Integer.The default cell style is hexadecimal 2 digits (.Format="X2").When entering in cell editing I would like to provide to the user, the possibility to write the value in decimal or hexdacimal.Hexadecimal could be written like, for example, 0x00, 0X01, x02, XFF
Decimal like 0, 1, 2, 15For this reason in EditingControlShowing I add "0x" to the TextBox value

I am adding an undo feature for a DataGridView using the Command Design Pattern. To create the EditCommand, I have to know what was the previous value of the cell, so I can re-enter it in case the user hits undo. I'm doing it using the CellBeginEdit and CellEndEdit events. With the CellBeginEdit, I save the value of the cell in a private variable and at the CellEndEdit function, I use the saved value to create the EditCommand. It's working fine, but I wonder if there is a more saner way to do it. Maybe a event that holds together the previous and the new cell value. Bonus points if I could actually prevent the DataGridView from updating itself and let the EditCommand do it.

I am trying to display a custom control in a datagridview cell so that I can show nicely formatted information.
I am quite comfortable with the use of datagridview control accepting a list of objects as its datasource. I am also comfortable with populating the cell contents in the cellformatting event.
So I am planning to, instead of using a normal textbox control, button control and linkedtext control in datagridview cell, display my own custom control which is good one for displaying some custom data like, name, address, telephone, photo and others. It would be a nice improvement in my application.
How do I show the error icon and ToolTip when the user is editing the cell in dataGridView?

View 18 RepliesIn my form there is a DataGridView, the user select information in the DataGridView then there are text boxes that needs to be filed in. So this is what needs to happens if the focus is on the DataGridView when the user hits the Tab key it moves the focus to first text box. Then once the user hits the last tab box it returns focus back to the DataGridView but to next cell. Initially figured this would not be a problem and did this code;

I have a form with multiple datagridviews. On save the entire dataset will be serialized to a strongly typed property bound to a sql varbinary(max) Works fine. Of course the current "dirty" cell will not be saved as mentioned here :
[URL]
My problem is the user could be coming from any one of 20 datagridviews when they click SAVE. Is there any way, short of checking for a dirty cell in each datagridview to commit any dirty cell before the save ( clicking another textbox control before the save does the trick but calling the focus() of that textbox prior to the save does not ) I was thinking perhaps catching the event of leaving the grid but it seems the base problem is clicking a button (for reasons I think I understand) does not fire lostfocus events for the current control and it doesn't seem the click handler args knows what the last current selected control is.
How can I programatically reveal the name of the current function or sub being executed? How can I programatically determine when a usercontrol is in focus. I've been using the .Paint peramiter and while this works, I think there has to be a better way.
View 2 RepliesI have a datagrid that will be accepting data from an external measuring device via the serial port. The grid is also open to editing records as well. Part of the process of making this grid user friendly is to intercept the "enter" key and move to the next cell until there is a value in the cell. This is only for some cells, other cells can be blank. I have worked out how to intercept the "enter" key from another post on this forum. Here is the code:

So I've got 2 unbound datagridviews, and am providing a push/pull interface where the user can move records from one to the other.
Grid A is read-only and the selectionmode is set to FullRowSelect. Grid B has a read-only DataGridViewTextBoxCell, an editable DataGridViewComboBoxCell, and an editable DataGridViewComboBoxCell.
Because the grids have different columns, but represent the same records, my notion was to create the datagridviews with the same column structure but hiding certain columns, and then just move the DataGridViewRows back and forth between the two, which seams to work.
The problem is that if I go into column 2 or 3 in grid B, I get "Current cell cannot be set to an invisible cell".
I can select cells in column A and I'm fine. It should be noted that on grid B the hidden columns are 4-7.
I know there's a problem when the CurrentCell attribute is set to a hidden cell, but I'm clicking visible cells. I inserted a breakpoint on the CellClick event of the DGV, and again for column 1 that works fine, but on columns 2 and 3 it looks like the error is occuring before the event even gets fired.
Is something in the background setting CurrentCell to one of the hidden cells before firing the event?
I have a datagrid and all cell is readonly except a first cell.
I set selectmode to full rowselect.
I want to when i select row the first cell is in editting mode.
I have a function that gets information off a webpage and adds it to a datagridview that has a few columns.
Is there a way to make sure the item im about to add is not within the datagridview recordset already?

I'm reading a cell value from a Datagridview, and this works fine in other projects, but not here?
HTML
Dim OldGUID() As String = Nothing
Dim X as Integer = -1
For X = 0 To Me.DGView.RowCount - 1
If Me.DGView.Rows(X).Cells(0).Value.ToString IsNot String.Empty Then
OldGUID(X) = Me.DGView.Rows(X).Cells(0).Value
End If
Next
It fails on the line: OldGUID(X) = Me.DGView.Rows(X).Cells(0).Value
with: NullReferenceException was unhandled - Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
The Cell has a string value and during debug I see the value, but it fails anyway.
I have a one column DataGridView that I use to display data from a database.Is it possible add a command button to one of the cells in that column? I don't want a second column as a DataGridViewButtonColumn. I want the rows containing the database data and the command button row in the same column. Also, if that is possible, I don't want the button's width to be the same as the column's width. Is it possible to manually set the width property?

View 7 RepliesI have a DGV bound to a data adapter. I have a button that loads a form with a reference to the DGV row. When the form is loaded, it has a TextBox to type a value, that modifies one of the cells of the row. When the form closes, the cell.value is properly modified, but saving the DGV doesn't save the new value of the cell to the DB table. I'm assuming this happens because the DGV hasn't had physical interaction. Also, this particular field is a password field, so the whole column is being hidden from the view.It seems that a DGV change is noted by physically clicking in a cell and it stores some data telling the adapter there have been changes. The thing is, this is done on a per cell basis, and only if the cell has been clicked. Well, this cell is hidden, so even though the value will be changed, you could never click or select that cell.Is there any other way to force the DGV to accept changes made to it from outside actions of just assigning the cell.value from a button click and not phsyically changing it in the DGV?
View 1 RepliesWhen a certain form (containing a datagridview (dgv)) is first loaded, the dgv cell formatting event is triggered by the line
dgv_WorkHistory.DataSource = ds_WorkHistory.Tables(0).DefaultView This successfully adds some background colour to a few cells in the displayed table. After this the next line of code is executed. The problem is that if I then try to load a different table (by choosing one from a listbox), the new table displays OK but without the desired formatting. Why?
Stepping through the code I find first of all that when I click on the listbox the dgv cell formatting event is instantly raised (immediately, even before any code in the listbox click event is executed). Why does clicking on the listbox trigger the cell formatting event?
Then, when execution reaches the line quoted above for the second time (remember it triggered cell formatting the first time round) it doesn't this time trigger it. The next line of code is executed instead. Why has the behaviour changed?
Is it possible to put the focus on a certain cell on the new row in a datagradview.
So when I add the row I can inmediately start typing?

Essentially what I'm trying to do is to save the value of a string() to a cell in the datagrid view. The problem is that when I close the program and reopen it the changed value isn't there... It's not saving properly.
Here is my code.
Dim BOCHURSTOTAL As Double = ((BochurimBindingSource.Current("Give_To_Bochur_Quant") * (bochurpr)) + _
(BochurimBindingSource.Current("Reg_Quant") * (regularpr)) + _
(BochurimBindingSource.Current("Priv1_Quant") * (private1pr)) + _
(BochurimBindingSource.Current("Priv2_Quant") * (private2pr)) + _
(BochurimBindingSource.Current("Priv3_Quant") * (private3pr)))
DataGridView1.CurrentRow.Cells("DGV1TotalColumn").Value = BOCHURSTOTAL

Me.BochurimBindingSource.EndEdit()
Me.BochurimTableAdapter.Update(Me.PuterDataSet.Bochurim)
