Detecting real changes in a bound datagrid

[David Batt]

Hi,
I need to determine when data in a datagrid bound to a dataset has changed and thus make
updates accordingly.

I would of thought the code below would detect when a change has been made to the dataset, however
the haschanges value is set to true even if i just click on a cell without changing anything. is there anyway of
telling if anything has actually really changed on the bound grid. I need to know when an actual changes are made, not just when the
user has clicked on a cell.
thank you
David

The code:

datagrid1.datasource = customerdataset1.tables!customers
private sub datagrid1_currentcellchanged(etc....)

If customersDataSet1.HasChanges Then
MsgBox("dataset has changed")

End If

end sub

Hi David,

Add this before the check for changes

DirectCast(BindingContext(customerDataset1!custome rs),
CurrencyManager).EndCurrentEdit()

If customersDataSet1.HasChanges Then
MsgBox("dataset has changed")

Now that this event not fired when you leave the datagrid or close the
program.

I hope this helps?
