problem with datagrid and how to update database when cell changes

TM
I have a problem with the datagrid where I wanted to detect any changes to
the grid, such as a record being changed, added or deleted. So I used the
currentcellchan ged method and used the code
below to update the database. But for some reason, it is detecting and
correctly updating the database on add and remove of records. But is not
writing cell changes back to the database. ANy ideas ?

'this sub will handle if a cell is changed or if a new record is added
Dim dgCell As DataGridCell = grdShoppingList .CurrentCell
Dim strIsle As String = grdShoppingList .Item(dgCell.Ro wNumber, 0).ToString
Dim strItem As String = grdShoppingList .Item(dgCell.Ro wNumber, 1).ToString
If strItem.Trim = "0" And strItem.Trim.Le ngth <> 0 Then
'do not add record if it is blank
'write updates to database file and set label to number of records
objShoppingList DA.Update(objSh oppingListDataS et, "ShoppingLi st")
updateShoppingL abel()
End If

ALso, is there any way to force a re-sort of the grid when I add or delete
records so that it is now sorted in the proper order ?

Thanks

Hi TM,

A datagrid is what it says a grid for data.

That data is alway in a ilist class (for a datagrid mostly a datatable I
think) often it is filtered by a dataview.

Therefore to see the changes (and I keep it simple by asuming you use a
datatable) you can watch the changes in the datatable. (A datatable can be a
part of a dataset)

I hope this helps a little bit.

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone can help me with a really annoying problem I have been having. I made a derived datagrid class that will select the row when a user clicks anywhere on a cell (multi-select without modifier keys). I got that working fine, but I also wanted to keep rows selected after a sort, which I do by storing the row's id in an arraylist. The idea was to do the sort and then go back and re-select the rows with that...

I want to fire a database update off of a single change to a single cell in the datagrid. This apparently cannot be done using keypress, keyup, keydown, etc. I've read George Shepard's FAQ and while I may have overlooked it, I have not found an answer. I now am using the CurrentCellChanged event, and this is satisfactory IF the user moves off of the cell before closing the form. An obvious alternative would be to check for changes before...

I have a windows forms datagrid and I would like to be able to recognize when changes have been made in order to perform the update. I tried the following, which works well, but only if the user changes rows at some point. If they enter the grid, change a cell, and then click close it does not see the change. The same holds true if they enter the grid, change a cell, arrow right or left to a different cell and change that value. If...
