Get DataGrid Cell Content After Intial Sort

I have a DataGrid on the left and TextBoxes (TB) on the right. The TB's
reflect the contents of the grid cells.

Sorting of columns (both thru VS and programmatically) work fine except,
when the form/grid first opens up and the grid is immediately sorted the TB
don't reflect the sorted data of the First row of the grid.

Note: Initially the black grid indicator arrow points to the first row. If
the user choses another row and then sorts the TB's reflect proper data.

//setGridSort(DataSet dataSet, DataGrid dataGrid, string
sortTableColumnName, int tableNo)
DataView dataView = createNewDataView();
dataView = dataSet.Tables[tableNo].DefaultView;
dataView.Sort = sortTableColumnName;
dataGrid.DataSource = dataView;

//incorrect - not the correct cell value of the grid for the TB
numberTB.Text = (string) (dataGrid[dataGrid.CurrentRowIndex, columnNo]);

Steve,

Are you setting up the data binding correctly? Is the data source that
you are connecting the grid to the same as the data source that you are
binding the textboxes to?

Can you show a piece of code that shows the issue?

Steve,

It looks like you are using two separate data sources. The grid is
binding to this.configMgmtLogDS.StevesConfigMgmtLog, while the textbox is
binding to this.configMgmtLogDS. Even though the binding says to get member
"StevesConfigMgmtLog.DocumentNumber", which effectively gets the data table
StevesConfigMgmtLog, they are two separate data sources.

You should either change the grid data source to be this.configMgmtLogDS
and set the data member to "StevesConfigMgmtLog", or switch the data source
of the TextBox binding to this.configMgmtLogDS.StevesConfigMgmtLog, and set
the member to DocumentNumber.

//I really wish I had success BUT, currently:

//See last thread entry for method content
setGridSort(DataSet dataSet, DataGrid dataGrid,
string sortTableColumnName, int tableNo);

//current dGrid Bindings
this.dGrid.DataMember = "StevesConfigMgmtLog";
this.dGrid.DataSource = this.configMgmtLogDS;

//current TextBox Binding
this.numberTB.DataBindings.Add(new System.Windows.Forms.Binding("Text",
this.configMgmtLogDS, "StevesConfigMgmtLog.DocumentNumber"));

//AFTER GRID SORT
//and not moving the black grid indicator arrowhead

//incorrent - displays first entry in the DataSet
numberTB.Text = (string) configMgmtLogDS.Tables[dbaseTableName].Rows[0][5];

//incorrent - displays entry that shown in grid before grid sort
numberTB.Text = (string) dGrid[0, 5];
