    Very Simple DataGrid Question

    I have a very simple datagrid, with an edit button that I added in
    PropertyBuilder . This fires the EditCommand event just fine and I show a
    panel where the user can edit certain fields. I have a button to save the
    changes. Within that button, I refer to dataGrid1.EditI temIndex and it's
    returning -1. Isn't this property set when I click on the edit button
    within the grid?

      Re: Very Simple DataGrid Question

      Scratch that question, I'm an idiot. My real question is that I don't want
      to do editing within the grid, I want to populate controls outside of the
      grid and then save/rebind.

      I'm able to handle the Edit Command and populate the controls, but when I
      want to save it back to the dataset, I need to refer to the record that was
      selected within the grid. How can I refer to the item that was selected
      within my grid, without setting something explicitly in a session variable
      or something like that?

          James,

          In my opinion is this a WebForm datagrid. It is again a while ago I used
          that, however in my opinion do you have first to select the row and than you
          can use the other buttons.

          It is nicely explained on MSDN in this page

          http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...dWriteData.asp

          I hope this helps,

          Cor
