Hello Arpita,

Thank you for your replies. I have been looking into the requirement that you are having and I can suggest using the CellEnteringEditMode event of the XamGrid in order to restring the changing of the value in the CheckboxColumn. In the CellEnteringEditMode event handler, you can get the column and the value of the Combo column and if the value of the combo column is “State 2” and the e.Cell.Column.Key is “IsPreserved”, you can cancel the event and show message box, with the text you wish. Here is an example for doing that:

Xaml:

<ig:XamGrid 
    x:Name="ManageRecipeStateGrid"
    AutoGenerateColumns="False" 
    ColumnWidth="*" 
    ItemsSource="{Binding ManageRecipeStateResults}" RowHeight="Dynamic"
    CellControlAttached="ManageRecipeStateGrid_CellControlAttached"
            
    CellEnteringEditMode="ManageRecipeStateGrid_CellEnteringEditMode">   
 ................           

C#:

private void ManageRecipeStateGrid_CellEnteringEditMode(object sender, BeginEditingCellEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Cell.Column.Key.Equals("IsPreserved") && 
        e.Cell.Row.Cells["CurrentRecipeState"].Value.Equals("State 2") )
    {
        e.Cancel = true;
        MessageBox.Show("Cannot check the checkbox for this record because Recipe State is State 2");               
    }
}

Please let me know if you need any further assistance on the matter.

Hello Arpita,

Thank you for your reply. I am very glad that the approach I have suggested was helpful.  I am using the SetCellValue method, since the Cell.Value property is read only and you can set the value of the cell, through the cell itself. This method is creating a CellValueObject which contains one dependency property and  then creates a Binding between the property that corresponds to the current cell and the Value property of the CellValueObject, through the Data of the current row. After that, it sets the Value property of the CellValueObject, which triggers the Binding and this way the value of the property that corresponds to the cell is set, without interacting with the Data item of the current row.

Regarding the code that you have mentioned,  in the CellExitingEditMode, I am de-attaching the handler, since each time the editor enters edit mode, a handler is attached to the Click event. If this code is commented, the hadnlers of the event will increase with one each time the Cell enters edit mode. This will case multiple execution of the the same function and when you enter ‘n’ times edit mode, for one cell and then click on the CheckBox, you will see that ‘n’ MessageBoxes are opened one after another.

Please let me know if you need any further assistance on the matter.

Sincerely,
