[Solved] GroupIndex not updated when performing drag drop within group

[Malcolm Cooper]

I have a grid which has grouping.  I need to be able to drag and drop (reorder) within a group and between groups. While stepping through the code I can see that the Destination ItemIndex is update, but not the the Destination GroupIndex.  I need to know where within the group I am dropping the record so that it can be updated correctly in the database.  Is there anyway to do this without using the ItemIndex and looping through the recordset to find the index within a group?

Thanks,
Malcolm

Hello Malcolm,

You can use the (e.DestDataItem as GridDataItem), to locate the item where the dragged items are dropped. You can get the ItemIndex, or the key field of the record, to determine where the item is being dragged, in the RowDrop event handler. Based on this, you can determine where in the database to move the item.
