Dear all,

i'm back on my evaluation and i thank you so far for your help. I'm through with the WinForm-Grid and it quite impressed me because the features are very rich and very well thought and defined. Also the object model is one of the clearest i saw among other competitors. Especially i like the many interfaces for implementing custom strategies. And the sample application is also really the best i saw. Up to now infragistics is clearly our favorite!

Now i'm on the WPF-Controls and i have my first problem with the XamGrid:

I'm adding a unbound field to the field layout list and i'm expecting the Initialize record event to be fired to fill the data but nothing happens. So the unbound field i added remains empty.

How shall i proceed to fill unbound data after adding a unbound field at runtime?

Code (Vb):

' => called uppon setting checkbox for 'UnboundDemo' after the grid was bound to a DataView:

Protected Overrides Sub UseUnboundModeEnter()

             Dim aFieldLayout As FieldLayout = Me.FieldLayout
            Dim aUnboundField As New UnboundField
            aUnboundField.Label = "UnboundField"
            aUnboundField.DataType = GetType(String)
            Me.UseUnboundModeUnboundField = aUnboundField
            Me.FieldLayout.Fields.Insert(0, aUnboundField) ' => I'm expecting Grid.InitializeRecord

End Sub

   ' event handler Grid.InitializeRecord: Here i fill unbound data

    Private Sub UseUnboundModeFillData(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As _   

       Infragistics.Windows.DataPresenter.Events.InitializeRecordEventArgs) Handles Grid.InitializeRecord

        If TryCast(e.Record, DataRecord) IsNot Nothing Then
            Dim aDataRecord As DataRecord = DirectCast(e.Record, DataRecord)
            Dim aUnboundField As UnboundField = Me.UseUnboundModeUnboundField
            If aUnboundField IsNot Nothing Then
                If aDataRecord.FieldLayout.Fields.Contains(aUnboundField) Then
                    aDataRecord.Cells(aUnboundField).Value = "UnboundData[" & aDataRecord.Index & "]"
                End If
            End If
        End If
    End Sub
