Hi,
i'm missing my question sent June 7th, so here it is again. I have a DataSet
(ds) a BindingSource (bs) and an [infragistic] grid (gr). When i setup these
three in the following manner: bs.DataSource = ds; bs.DataMember =
"some_table_name"; gr.DataSource = bs; everything works fine - the table rows
are displayed in the grid. Now i want to format the values before they are
shown in the grid and parse them correpondingly before they are pushed back
to the DataSet after editing. All hints i found say: use the
Binding.Parse/Format events. But where can i find the respective Binding
objects in the former scenario? The bs.CurrencyManager.Bindings collection is
empty.
Thanks in advance
Peter
 
Hi,
i suspect to overlook something very essential. I consider it to be an every
day problem to display data in grids in a customized way - let's say just
appending a measurement unit [mph, miles] to numbers. My question is how to
achieve that for a DataGrid. For simple controls i know that using
Binding.Format/Parse is the answer.
Any hints are welcome
Peter
