checkbox current value

[Hilda Kenny]

hi I have a checkbox where I need to check something if it is selected.  In the cellbeginedit event I check the value of the checkbox but it is false when I clearly set it to true. Is there a different way to approach this?  All I need to do is call a function if the checkbox is set to ticked.  The column is also added at run time if that helps. Thanks.

Hi Hilda,

Thank you for writing.

I have made a small test, where initially the value of the check box is true and in the CellBeginEdit event I am checking the ActiveEditor or the CurrentCell value and it appears correct - it is still true - since the action was not yet processed. Here is the code that I use to check the value:

e.ActiveEditor.Value
//or
radGridView1.CurrentCell.Value

However, in your case a better approach to track check box changes and perform the desired actions is described in this help article - GridViewCheckBoxColumn.
