datagrid databind and child controls.

Hi,

how do i reset a dropdownlist selectedindex value to a specific value - when
the dropdownlist isa in a custom grid header, is data bound, and the main
grid has been rebound to its datasource?

As i understand it when grid.databind is called the databind of all child
controls will be called. Now i am wondering how can i post process the
dropdownlist after the databind has happened.

I would prefer to post process than to have to data bind the selectedindex
proiperty of the dropdownlist whose vlaue i coudl set up before i databind
the main gird....any suggestions appreciated?

Thanks.

Trying to figure out the technique which should be used to add rows to a datagrid. I am thinking that I would want an "Add" button on the footer, but I am not quite sure how to do that. Is that the best method? Do you have a sample of how to do this?

Hi there: I've read an excellent "how to"-article by Microsoft (no. 306227) - partly cited cited at the end of this email). I have implemented the code related to the part "How to Add a CheckBox Programmatically" in my code. I have changed it to use a OLDDB.DBReader to populate the datagrid and for the databinding. It works perfectly - also when using the edit-mode in the datagrid.

Is there a way to carry data that I have already read from the datagrid from page to page? I am looking at my Datagrid that I page through and when the user says get the next page, I have to go to the database to get the next page. Is there a way to use the dataset to allow us to read back and forth in it instead of going back to the database to get it? Thanks,

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
