dataGrid and cellParsing

[jay]

OK, I have a databound grid. I can stop the user from deleting a price by
capturing the cellParsing event, but what do I do after that? I have set
e.parsingApplie d = false, but that does not prevent the user from pressing
the Save button, which is when I see the error message: "The following
exception occurred in the dataGridView" Price does not allow nulls... Whats
the Best Practice for handling these kinds of issues?

Re: dataGrid and cellParsing

Instead of CellParsing, try using CellValidating with code similar to
this in the handler:

If e.FormattedValu e Is Nothing OrElse e.FormattedValu e = DBNull.Value
OrElse e.FormattedValu e.ToString() = "" Then
e.Cancel = True
End If
