Datagrid questions

[pcPirate]

Hi,

 

In C#

i) Is there anyway to input value on particular cell in datagrid in the coding?

ii) How do I save the contents of the datagrid back to database?

iii) I've made a custom datagrid myself, with button on column. However, what I really want is actually a textbox with button in one column. Is there any example regarding that?

 

Pls advise.

Thanks in advance.

I think you're missing the datagrid point here...

 

The datagrid is intended to be connected to a datasource...

So, (1) if you want to write something on a certain cell, by code as you told, you just have to go to that datasource and input the data you want.

 

(2) Following the logic of what I just told you on (1), the data have to be already on some datasource, it doesn't have to be a database, it can be a collection... So you have to implement the correspondent methods to save your data (If your using DataSets use the DataAdapter for example)

 

(3) Here I can't help you... :) sorry

1) I can think of many reason for this, a calculation or a condition is met so you update the grid through code,,,,

 

2) You can use the DataAdapter's Update command for this. (commandBuilder)

 

3) I only know for web controls, sorry.
