    How do I cancel editing of the current cell in a radgridview in the code behind.  I want the same behavior as if I had hit the escape key once.

    Hi,

     Have you tried CancelEdit() method of the grid?

    CancelEdit cancels the edit of the entire row in the grid.  CancelEdit is the same behavior as hitting escape twice, i just want to cancel edit on the current cell.

    Here is my scenrario.  For a column I have it's CellEditTemplate using a combox.  In the section changed event for that combox I have some logic that evaluates the current section, and depending on the choice prompts the user if they are sure they want to make this change.  If the user says no, then I want to call cancel edit on the current cell.  Because there is no cancel edit for the current cell, I have to manually set the value back to what is was before the user started editing that cell.

    Hello,

    We will consider adding a public API for "Cancel cell edit", meanwhile you could execute RadGridViewCommand.CancelCellEdit command via code behind.

    RadGridViewCommands.CancelCellEdit.Execute(null);

    This will cancel edit of the current cell and it is what RadGridView performs when Esc key is pressed.
    Let me know if this doesn't help.

    If possible could you give a small code example on how to invoke
    RadGridViewCommands.CancelCellEdit.Execute(null);
    against a radgridview object in C#?

    Thank you,

    Thank you for the article.

    When I try the following code:
    RoutedUICommand cancelCellEdit = RadGridViewCommands.CancelCellEdit.Execute(null) as RoutedUICommand;
    cancelCellEdit.Execute(null, this.radGridView);

    I am getting a boxing and unboxing error at compile time. Is there some other kind of software pattern I need to use?

    The compile time error:
    Error    136    Cannot convert type 'void' to 'System.Windows.Input.RoutedUICommand' via a reference conversion, boxing conversion, unboxing conversion, wrapping conversion, or null type conversion

    Hello Alan,

    Can you try defining your command as follows:

    var cancelCellEdit = RadGridViewCommands.CancelCellEdit as RoutedUICommand;
    cancelCellEdit.Execute(null, this.clubsGrid);

    It is compiling thank you!

    But the grid is tabbing to the next cell. Is there a way to invoke a command to prevent that as well?

    Hi,

    What you can try is to set the cell whose editing you just cancelled and set it as current again. Will that approach meet your requirements ?
