Validate and Modify Record at run time.
posted

I am using a converter (below) and CVP to identify text patterns in a particular column in my grid. When I find a matching entry, I want to modify it in the recordset and refresh or affect the view such that the modified version is displayed. E.G. If rox x column n contains "Fred" change to "Barney" etc.

Questions: Is this a sound approach? Is it possible to modify the record at run time and display the new value without reloading the whole thing? Can I pass the whole record or key fields via the CVP rather than just the field it is acting on?

I've attached the converter so you can get the idea of what I am trying to do. Below you can see I am scanning the Area name (looking for pattern) and attaching it to the UnitID field. The CVP returns the Area name to the converter. I would like to return the unitid also so I can use it to update the recordset (it is the key). 

Thanks,

Glenn
