Re: After sorting in a DataGridView the Row.EndEdit causes row change

4-Jun-07 13:38

So long as the textbox's are bound in the same binding context, managed by the bindingsource) as the datagrid, you don't have to do anything. It happens automatically!

Try it! Start a new project. Create a form with a DGV and a couple of textboxs on it and add a bindingsource object to the form. Write some SQL to fill a datatable with a few columns of data and bind the BindingSource to the DataTable. Bind the DGV and the TextBox's to the BindingSource, like in my previous post, and try it! It might just surprise you.

I have Edit mode and Add mode, when the user chooses Add mode I clear the textbox bindings and when the user chooses Edit mode I use the following code.

uxFirstName.DataBindings.Add("Text", BindingSourceCirculars, "FirstName", True)
       uxLastName.DataBindings.Add("Text", BindingSourceCirculars, "LastName", True)
       uxAddress.DataBindings.Add("Text", BindingSourceCirculars, "Address", True)
       uxCity.DataBindings.Add("Text", BindingSourceCirculars, "City", True)
       uxState.DataBindings.Add("Text", BindingSourceCirculars, "State", True)
       uxZipCode.DataBindings.Add("Text", BindingSourceCirculars, "ZipCode", True)

Unless I choose the find the row and edit it, nothing in the DataGridView changes until I change rows in the grid. Am I missing something? Binding seems to be much more complicated in 2.0 than it EVER was in 1.1 and I cant seem to find the information I need in order to make this work the way I want it to.

Is the real trick here to just call BindingSource.EndEdit in order to have that change applied if I am trying to have the user push a "Save" button for familiarity purposes?

DataSet writing errors with code

6-Jun-07 16:36

Did ya try it? Big Grin | :-D

It's very possible that's all it's going to take. On top of that, maybe refreshing the DGV.

Can someone tell me the difference between these similar dataset writing routines?

The data writing subroutine:
Private Sub New_Bindings(ByVal intOrdinal As Integer, _
ByVal strCode As String, _
ByVal strName As String)

drCurrent = MyDataSet.Tables("tblBindings").NewRow()
drCurrent!Ordinal = intOrdinal
drCurrent!BindingCode = strCode
drCurrent!BindingName = strName
MyDataSet.Tables("tblBindings").Rows.Add(drCurrent)
Call Show_Changes("Sub New_Bindings", MyDataSet)
End Sub

After each row is written into the dataset I have another subroutine that prints out the results called Show_Changes.

Case one – The data is placed directly into the subroutine call.

I’m writing 5 rows to the dataset like this:
Call New_Bindings(1, "TST1", "Record 1")
Call New_Bindings(2, "TST2", "Record 2")
Call New_Bindings(3, "TST3", "Record 3")
Call New_Bindings(4, "TST4", "Record 4")
Call New_Bindings(5, "TST5", "Record 5")

Output screen results after each row addition:
Sub - Sub New_Bindings
TableName: tblBindings
1 TST1 1 Record 1
Sub - Sub New_Bindings
TableName: tblBindings
1 TST1 1 Record 1
2 TST2 2 Record 2
Sub - Sub New_Bindings
TableName: tblBindings
1 TST1 1 Record 1
2 TST2 2 Record 2
3 TST3 3 Record 3
Sub - Sub New_Bindings
TableName: tblBindings
1 TST1 1 Record 1
2 TST2 2 Record 2
3 TST3 3 Record 3
4 TST4 4 Record 4
Sub - Sub New_Bindings
TableName: tblBindings
1 TST1 1 Record 1
2 TST2 2 Record 2
3 TST3 3 Record 3
4 TST4 4 Record 4
5 TST5 5 Record 5

This works just fine. All the records have been written to the dataset and I can use the BindingNavigator control to go from record to record.

Case 2 – The data is placed into the subroutine via variables.
Call New_Bindings(CInt(txtOrdinal.Text), txtBindingCode.Text, txtBindingName.Text)

Output screen after the same five rows are added.
Sub - Sub New_Bindings
TableName: tblBindings
1 TST1 1 Record 1
Sub - Sub New_Bindings
TableName: tblBindings
1 TST2 2
2 TST2 2 Record 2
Sub - Sub New_Bindings
TableName: tblBindings
1 TST3 3
2 TST2 2 Record 2
3 TST3 3 Record 3
Sub - Sub New_Bindings
TableName: tblBindings
1 TST4 4
2 TST2 2 Record 2
3 TST3 3 Record 3
4 TST4 4 Record 4
Sub - Sub New_Bindings
TableName: tblBindings
1 TST5 5
2 TST2 2 Record 2
3 TST3 3 Record 3
4 TST4 4 Record 4
5 TST5 5 Record 5

As you can see the dataset is not the same. The method of data entry is the same except that case 2 uses variables instead of literals. Obviously .NET handles these two similar data entry methods differently, but I haven’t a clue as to how or why this occurs.

I don't know exactly where the application fails. There are two different methods of entering data that should produce the same results, but don't.

Cleako asked for the code on Friday 1 Jun 07 when I first posted it. Today I reposted the question showing exactly what is happening and attached the code at the bottom of the letter so if some one needed the code they could look at it.

Do I need to get with Microsoft for a resolution to this problem?

I asked for the Binding portion, I apologize for not getting back with you. I honestly dont know why you are having an issue with this because it looks correct, it looked correct before, and unless you changed it Im sure it's still correct. What you are doing is one of the most basic functions of ADO.NET.

I attached the entire form class just in case there was an issue with the data binding portion or something else.

I have one other resource looking it over. If he can't find the problem then I'm being forced to use one of my complementry support intances.

hi guys

The problem im having is datagridview rowindex matches the binding dataset.table index, as long as I don't click on one of the column headers to change the datagridview sort order. can anyone help me getting rowindex to be the same no matter if i sort the DGV or not.

Thanks in advance

You normally wouldn't care about the row index in the DGV. What are you trying to do with it?

Hi Dave

thanks for your reply.

basically my DGV has only a few bound columns and what i intend to do is retrieve further data from table based on the select DGV row.

so if rowindex 0 is selected from the grid i want to be able to talk to the table based on the same index making sure its the same record. i dont want to add more bound columns in the grid because there are too much.

any tips or advice would be appreciated.

OK. Then you're looking for the SelectedRows or SelectedCells. They return a DataGridViewRow and DataGridViewCell respectively. These will contain the data that the user clicked on, regardless if the DGV is bound or not, sorted or not.

Private Sub DGV1_SelectionChanged(blah, blah) Handles DGV1.SelectionChanged
    For Each row As DataGridViewRow In DGV1.SelectedRows
        For Each cell As DataGridViewCell In row.Cells
            Debug.Write(cell.FormattedValue.ToString() & " | ")
        Next
        Debug.WriteLine(String.Empty)
    Next
End Sub

Each DataGridViewCell object knows which DataGridViewRow contains it, through its OwningRow property. If the user clicks on any cell, the OwningRow property of that cell will give you the DataGridViewRow that the user clicked in. Using that, you can get the ID column of the row and use that value any way you want.

For Each cell As DataGridViewCell In DGV1.SelectedSells
    Debug.WriteLine(String.Format("Cell Data: {0}    Parent Row ID: {1}", _
        cell.FormattedValue.ToString, _
        cell.OwningRow.Cells("IDColumnName").FormattedValue.ToString))
Next

Thank for your patience dave.

I just need clarification on something.. realisticly what im trying to do is clone a record and rewrite columns so that essentially its not a duplicated record after all when its written to a table but I havent been able to work that out. (any advice you can give me will save you reading below and helping me along where im at right now)..

so imagine in my DGV i have surname , firstname , address . if i select a particular record showing these columns and rows respectively i want to additionally go to the table and also get "phone number" etc.

i guess what im asking is based on the DGV selection how can i go to the table and pickout the rest of the fields i need for that same row of data selected in the DGV.

e.g. SELECTED ROW IN DGV(IN BOLD)

[SURNAME]-[FIRSTNAME]-[ADDRESS]
CHAN,...........ALEX,.......mamre drive.............[AT INDEX 0}
Bloggs,.......JOE,.......2 Hollywood st , hollywood..INDEX 1

if i sort this by FIRSTNAME IN DESCENDING. it would be

[SURNAME]-[FIRSTNAME]-[ADDRESS]
Bloggs,.........JOE,.....2 Hollywood st , hollywood... INDEX 0
CHAN,.............ALEX,.....mamre drive .....................INDEX 1

im trying to use the below line
where "i" is the row number coming from DGV select row index.
dim value as string
value = ds.tables("customers").rows(i).item("phone")

* if i use the index from the DGV after i sort it it doesnt return the correct record to match the phone number...

just a reminder.. If i dont sort the DGV at all. I can use the DGV.index and use it here :
dim value as string
value = ds.tables("customers").rows(i).item("phone") it WORKS CORRECTLY. its just after i sort the DGV that I cant get

ds.tables("customers").rows(i).item("phone") to return the correct row from the table..

sorry about this dave .. thanks for your patience.

Robbo

Dave Kreskowiak4-Jun-07 8:09

4-Jun-07 8:09

You do not need the row number at all. Once you have to DataGridViewRow, you have the ENTIRE record that was clicked on. Every field that the grid was bound to in is that row object. So

Dim phone as String = cell.OwningRow.Cells("phone").Value

gives you the Phone column of the row that was clicked on. The example, of course, assumes that the Value property in that column returns a String. You'll have to change it to match whatever you're expecting.

You don't need to go to the table to get the rest of the fields.

If you didn't retrieve all the data you wanted in the first fetch, you need to change the first fetch to include the primary key in the table you bound the DGV to. When the use clicks on a row, you grab the PK value from the DataRow object and use that value in a second request to get the columns you need specifying the PK in the WHERE clause of the SQL SELECT.
