Added Row in DataGrid Not Correctly Written To DataSet

Hi Folks

I have created a DataGrid that I populate through a DataView. The DataView
itself represents only parts of the columns and only parts of the dataSet's
Rows.

When the User is adding a new Row in the dataGrid, I fill all fields with
default values using the ListChanged event of the dataView.

This works fine. Now the User can himself doing some modifications to the
fields.

When he now leaves the Row, not the actual values but the older default
values are stored to the DataSet. All User made modifications are lost.

Thanks for your effort
Chris

Click to expand...

ListChanged is called twice, once when DataTable.NewRow() is called and once
when the new row is added to the DataTable.Rows collections. So check for
the first state where RowState = Detached :

private void DefaultView_ListChanged(object sender, ListChangedEventArgs e)
{
if ( e.ListChangedType == ListChangedType.ItemAdded &&
dataView[e.NewIndex].Row.RowState == DataRowState.Detached )
{
// set defaults
}
}


Or maybe better, use the DefaultValue property of the DataColumn(s) in the
DataTable.

Is the DataView.AllowEdit = true?

This is straight from MSDN:

private void EditRow(DataView dv)
{
dv.AllowEdit = true;
dv[0].BeginEdit();
dv[0]["FirstName"] = "Mary";
dv[0]["LastName"] = "Jones";
dv[0].EndEdit();
}
