Event Type

Examples

The following code example uses RowValidating to check if valid track and release dates are entered.

private void ValidateByRow(Object sender, 
    DataGridViewCellCancelEventArgs data) 
{
    DataGridViewRow row = 
        songsDataGridView.Rows[data.RowIndex];
    DataGridViewCell trackCell = 
        row.Cells[songsDataGridView.Columns["Track"].Index];
    DataGridViewCell dateCell = 
        row.Cells[songsDataGridView.Columns["Release Date"].Index];
    data.Cancel = !(IsTrackGood(trackCell) && IsDateGood(dateCell));
}

private Boolean IsTrackGood(DataGridViewCell cell)
{
    Int32 cellValueAsInt;
    if (cell.Value.ToString().Length == 0)
    {
        cell.ErrorText = "Please enter a track";
        songsDataGridView.Rows[cell.RowIndex].ErrorText = 
            "Please enter a track";
        return false;
    }
    else if (cell.Value.ToString().Equals("0"))
    {
        cell.ErrorText = "Zero is not a valid track";
        songsDataGridView.Rows[cell.RowIndex].ErrorText =
            "Zero is not a valid track";
        return false;
    }
    else if (!Int32.TryParse(cell.Value.ToString(), out cellValueAsInt))
    {
        cell.ErrorText = "A Track must be a number";
        songsDataGridView.Rows[cell.RowIndex].ErrorText =
            "A Track must be a number";
        return false;
    }
    return true;
}

        songsDataGridView.Rows[cell.RowIndex].ErrorText = 
            "Missing date";
        return false;

Remarks

This event is analogous to the Control.Validating event. Use this event to perform validation on all the values of a row. If the row does not pass validation, set the CancelEventArgs.Cancel property to true. Canceling this event prevents the RowValidated, Control.Validating, and Control.Validated events from occurring, and also prevents the user from leaving the invalid row and prevents the row from being saved to an external data source in data bound mode.
