Hi Markus,

I'm not sure, you might want to check with Microsoft and see if they have a better solution. I can't claim to be an expert on the BindingSource.

The only way I could get this to work was to use the same BindingSource for all three controls:

            this.bsParent.DataSource = this.ds;
            this.bsParent.DataMember = "Parent";
            this.ultraGrid1.DataSource = this.bsParent;

            // Bind a Numeric Editor to the Price field in the child band. 
            this.ultraNumericEditor1.DataBindings.Add("Value", this.bsParent, "Parent-Child.Price"); 

            // Bind the child grid to the entire child list. 
            this.ultraGrid2.SetDataBinding(this.bsParent, "Parent-Child");

Hello Mike,

I have modified your sample using BindingSources as I told you. Now you can see that selecting band[1] in grid1 does not reflect changes in grid2.

Can you explain me how to set the BindingSource properties DataSource and DataMember correctly that everything works. If I set the DataMember property as you did, I'm running into compile error "member not found in the source".

Best Regards

Markus

Hi Markus,

I'm attaching a sample here that binds both a grid and an UltraNumericEditor to some child data.

Hello Mike,

No I did not bound to the child data table. The BindingSource of Band[1] has the BindingSource of Band[0] as DataSource property and the relation (FK_Table2_Table1) as DataMember property defined. The NumericEditor is then bound to the ID-column of the BindingSource of Band[1].

I have found some discussions here about the problem:

http://devcenter.infragistics.com/Support/KnowledgeBaseArticle.Aspx?ArticleID=1753

But implementing this, does not solve the problem. Selecting rows on band[1] are not reflected. My workaround is to set a filter on the binding source with the parent-ID in the Grid_AfterSelectChange event.

this.myBindingSource.Filter = string.Format( "AccountId = {0}", parentId );

Since I don't have the same situation in a other form or project, I can not compare. Maybe I setup a small test project to figure out. But for now I have wasted lot of time working on this and I use my workaround. If I have a test project I will send you this later.

Best Regards. Markus

I can you give some more information. I have placed  a new grid on the form, bound to a datasource like described above but only two binding sources. The grid has therefore 2 bands. Furthermore I have bound two ultraNumericEditor to the primary keys of the bands.

Only changing the active row of the grid in the first band are reflected in the bound edit controls. The Id of the child rows is always the first row-Id.

I'm using version 9.2.20092.2058. Is this a bug?

Hi Markus,

How are you binding the second UltraNumericEditor. My guess is that you are binding it to the child table in the DataSource and not to the Relationship, which is what really represents the child band.

All of this is handled by the BindingManager in DotNet, though, it's really nothing specifically to do with the NetAdvantage controls, so it's not a bug - unless the grid is somehow not synchronizing the position of the BindingManager. But that's been working fine for 10 years, so it's unlikely that it broke recently. :)
