Windows Forms Datagrid Problem

Hi,

I have a datagrid tied to a dataview. I want to validate the information that is being entered. I want to accept only numbers in a column or only letter in another one.

I'll really appreciate your help on this matter.

Thanks,

The Whidbey DataGridView control has validation capabilities.

Use the DataGridView::CellValidating event to validate data at the cell level: for example to check that the cell value falls between certain limits.

Or you can use the DataGridView::RowValidating event to validate data on the entire row: for example to check that the sum of the values in several cells in the same row is within certain limits.

Hope this helps,
Daniel.

Try to state what version of the framework you are working with when asking quesitons. I assume since the other post didn't help that you might be using 1.1.

Here is a sample project I did for the 1.1 datagrid.
