I am attempting to use the CellValidating event.  I am encountering two problems.  First e.RowIndex is coming back as a -1 on the a new first row.  The row has been added using data binding.  Question, how can I find what row I am working with.  Second, I attempt to update the value (e.Row.Cells(1).value = "99213"  in a cell to the default, and the data does not show in e.Value.

Respectfully,
Dave

Hi David McCloskey,

Thank you for writing.

You can check if you are validating add new row by using e.Row argument of CellValidating event:

void radGridView1_CellValidating(object sender, CellValidatingEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Row is GridViewNewRowInfo)
    {
        //do something
    }
}

Unfortunately, CellValidating event does not support changing the validated cell value. We will consider to improve this behavior in some of the feature releases.

Do not hesitate to contact me again if you have other questions.

Best wishes,

Hi David McCloskey,

Thank you for writing.

You can change the cell value when handling the CellValidating event by using the CurrentCell property. Please consider the following code as example:

void radGridView1_CellValidating(object sender, CellValidatingEventArgs e)
{
    if (MyCondition)
    {
        this.radGridView1.CurrentCell.Value = "Validated Value";
    }
}

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Hi Martin,

The proposed solution works fine when the current cell has not value, but when the cell has value this assignment doesn't work and the old value remains unchanged. Is that possible?

Thank you

Hi Roberto Andrade Olivie,

Thank you for contacting me.

Setting the value of the current cell should work regardless of whether the old value is null or not. Maybe there is something specific in your project, which causes the described undesired behaviour. Please open a new support ticket and send me a small sample project, which demonstrates your scenario. This will help me to investigative your case further and provide you an accurate assistance. 

Best wishes,
