DataGrid LostFocus does not seem right

I have a datagrid tied to a data adapter. Everything works great,
EXCEPT, the LostFocus event only fires when I click on a specific cell
within the DataGrid. If I set focus on another control, the LostFocus
event does not fire. This is causing problems because I am checking
for HasChanged on every CurrentCellChanged event.

So if I change a cell, move to a new row, the update occurs just fine.
However, if I change a cell, then set the focus to another control, the
LostFocus event does not fire and I cannot check on whether the cell
was updated or not. Hence, the last change made without moving to a
new row is never saved.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Paul,

Cells are pushed down to the datasource using the endcurentedit, probably
implementing that will do what you are looking for.

A sample of that
\\\
BindingContext(ds.Tables(0)).EndCurrentEdit()
///

I hope this helps

Thanks Cor! I don't quite understand your code. However, I did
resolve this by using the Validating event. It fires when the DataGrid
loses focus and has the correct value for the HasChanged.

Thanks again!
