Row editing ?

Hello,

Using a RadGridView to make operation on a datatable/dataset,

If I create or edit a record, and the click on another line, or event some times on another cell from the same line/record,

I get an exception in 'Program.cs' (the starter class generated by Visual Studio containing Main() method)
on line Application.Run(new MyForm());
It say 'NoNullAllowedException crosser a native/manager boundary.'/'Column ... does not allow null.'

It seems that this exception can not be caught so my app crashes.
It doesn't seem to be firing the cell end edit event.

I understand this come from the dataset validation.

If the user strictly can not click out of the row while all data are not filled and valid, I think that's too restrictive.

How could I catch or manager this exception in a more user friendly way ? If possible.

Thank you for help,

Thomas

If yes, then when I try to export, I get this error...

System.InvalidOperationException: {"Could not find neighbour element!"}

and the stack trace is at

Telerik.WinControls.UI.Export.ExportToExcelML.SearchForNeighbourElement(List`1 radElementList, Int32 index) at Telerik.WinControls.UI.Export.ExportToExcelML.CreateStyleElement(GridViewRowInfo gridViewRowInfo, Int32 cellIndex) at Telerik.WinControls.UI.Export.ExportToExcelML.CreateRowElement(WorkBookElement workbook, GridViewRowInfo gridViewRowInfo) at Telerik.WinControls.UI.Export.ExportToExcelML.AddWorkSheetWithHeaderRow(WorkBookElement workbook, FileStream fileStream, Int32& currentSheet, Int32& currentRow) at Telerik.WinControls.UI.Export.ExportToExcelML.RunExport(String fileName)

[Solved] Filtering Question

How can I keep the gridview from applying its filterdescriptor untill the user presses enter in the filtercell (or leaves the cell by tab or click ie: the cellEndEdit event has passed (with rowIndex == -1))?

eg:
i have a column and I enter the filter string "abc" by typing the 3 character. Normally the grid will first add the fitlerdescriptor A then AB then ABC. Now I would like the behaviour of my gridview to be abc + "LEAVES FILTERFIELD" and then apply only 1 filterdescriptor ABC..

I have tried using a boolean "holdFiltering" which i set to true when the cellBeginEdit is fired on RowIndex == -1 and then i set it back to false at cellEndEdit, but unfortunately the cellEndEdit is fired AFTER the FilterChanging event (where i used the holdFiltering to set the e.Cancel = true & return from the method), this resulted in no more filtering whatsoever ;-)

Can anyone point me to or show me a working code snippet?

thank you in advance!

FilterChanging question

The GridViewCollectionChangingEventArgs on the FilterChanging event does not appear to be updated correctly. After the first filter change event, subsequent filters do not update NewItems and OldItems correctly.

The NewItems(0) does not reflect the updated filtered text. However, the NewValue does show the updated text. The OldItems(0) always equals zero, but OldValue is correct.

In addition, if the filter operator changes, the same discrepancy occurs, however the NewValue and OldValue are changed to an number. I'm assuming it is the enumerator of the operator.

See the screenshot and code example. I've opened a support ticket in case it is an actual bug, but hoping it is not and I'm just using it incorrectly.

Imports System.ComponentModel

Public Class Form1

Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

Dim foo As New BindingList(Of Person)

Dim i As Integer

Do Until i = 100

foo.Add(New Person("Name " & i.ToString))

i = i + 1

Loop

RadGridView1.DataSource = foo

End Sub

Public Class Person

Property Name As String

Public Sub New(ByVal Name As String)

_Name = Name

End Sub

End Class

Private Sub RadGridView1_FilterChanging(sender As Object, e As Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewCollectionChangingEventArgs) Handles RadGridView1.FilterChanging

TextBox1.Text = e.NewItems(0).ToString

TextBox2.Text = e.NewValue

If e.OldItems IsNot Nothing Then

TextBox3.Text = e.OldItems(0).ToString

TextBox4.Text = e.OldValue

End If

End Sub

End Class

MaskedEditBox ValueChanged

Hi!

I've been having trouble with the maskededitbox valuechanged event. Please check the following example:

Private Sub RadMaskedEditBox1_ValueChanging(sender As Object, e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles RadMaskedEditBox1.ValueChanging

MessageBox.Show("Value=" & RadMaskedEditBox1.Value)

End Sub

It does not show the proper value.

Also, I'd like to know if there is a way to disable the increase/decrease value using the up/down arrows.

Thanks for your help.
