ListObject.ErrorAddDataBoundRow Event

Definition

Namespace:

Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel

Assemblies:

Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.dll, Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.v4.0.Utilities.dll

Occurs when a user tries to add a row to a data-bound ListObject control, but the row cannot be added.

public:
 event Microsoft::Office::Tools::Excel::ErrorAddDataBoundRowEventHandler ^ ErrorAddDataBoundRow;

event Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.ErrorAddDataBoundRowEventHandler ErrorAddDataBoundRow;

member this.ErrorAddDataBoundRow : Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.ErrorAddDataBoundRowEventHandler 

Event ErrorAddDataBoundRow As ErrorAddDataBoundRowEventHandler 

Event Type

ErrorAddDataBoundRowEventHandler

Examples

The following code example creates a DataTable and a ListObject, and binds the ListObject to the DataTable. It then creates an ErrorAddDataBoundRow event handler. To test the event, manually add a new row to the ListObject and enter the last name "Chan" and a first name. The event handler displays a message.

This version is for a document-level customization.

private void ListObject_ErrorAddDataBoundRow()
{
    // Create a new DataSet and DataTable.
    DataSet ds = new DataSet();
    DataTable dt = ds.Tables.Add("Customers");
    DataColumn lastName = new DataColumn("LastName");
    dt.Columns.Add(lastName);
    dt.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("FirstName"));

    UniqueConstraint myUC = new UniqueConstraint( "CustConstraint", 
        lastName);
    dt.Constraints.Add(myUC);

    // Add a new row to the DataTable.
    DataRow dr = dt.NewRow();
    dr["LastName"] = "Chan";
    dr["FirstName"] = "Gareth";
    dt.Rows.Add(dr);

    // Create a list object.
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.ListObject list1 = 
        this.Controls.AddListObject(
        this.Range["A1"], "list1");

    // Bind the list object to the DataTable.
    list1.AutoSetDataBoundColumnHeaders = true;
    list1.SetDataBinding(ds, "Customers", "LastName",
        "FirstName");

    // Create the event handler.
    list1.ErrorAddDataBoundRow += new 
        Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.
        ErrorAddDataBoundRowEventHandler(list1_ErrorAddDataBoundRow);
}

void list1_ErrorAddDataBoundRow(object sender, 
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.ErrorAddDataBoundRowEventArgs e)
{
    MessageBox.Show("Last names must be unique.");
}

This version is for an application-level add-in. To use this code example, add the using System.Data; directive if you are using C# or the Imports System.Data statement if you are using Visual Basic.

        lastName);
    dt.Constraints.Add(myUC);

    // Add a new row to the DataTable.
    DataRow dr = dt.NewRow();
    dr["LastName"] = "Chan";

Remarks

This event is raised only if the ListObject control is bound to data.

Handle this event to attempt to correct possible errors.
