All,

I have a customized DataGridView where I have implemented extra functionality and bounded datasource in the same custom DataGridView (Using C# and .NET). Now, I could able to use it properly by placing it on a Tab control. I have added Add button on tab control to add a new row and added a Save button on a main form where the above mentioned Tab control has been placed.

Issue: I pressed Add button to create an empty row (Here, the cell value is null). Modified the grid cell value and immediately pressed Save button which is on main form. I observed that, the cursor is still in the grid cell when I press Save button. While saving, the cell value is null even though I have entered something in the presentation layer. My expected behaviour is to get the modified value while saving.

Special Case: After typing something in the grid cell, if I click on somewhere else before I click on Save button, it is working fine. (Here, mainly I tried to remove the focus from the currently modified cell)

Is there any way to bind sources before I click on save button? Please suggest me.

Please feel free to ask me if you need any information.

Hi,

 

Seems datagridview doesn’t commit currentcell value.

Does the save button is a toolstripbutton on the toolstrip or menustrip? These buttons do not need focus when you click. So these do not force DataGridView validating and committing the data.

Use the following code to force datagridview committing changes.

this.Validate();
