I posted this on framework.adonet but was hoping that someone in this forum
might also have an answer.

I have a TreeView which I populate with a dataset by using code like this...

foreach (DataSet1.CUSTUMERRow dr in myDataSet.CUSTOMER.Rows) {
node = treeView1.Nodes.Add(dr.NAME);
node.Tag =dr;
}

I also have several textboxes on the form that are bound to fields in
DataSet1.CUSTOMER.
I am trying to have those fields updated with the correct information
whenver a TreeView item is selected. I thought that by keeping a reference
to each dataRow in the tree node itself, I would be able to use it to
somehow move the 'Current Record' pointer so that the other Bound fields are
updated. I have tried using the CurrencyManager but cannot get that to work.

I can use the dataRow reference to manually update the fields and then
reapply the updates, but would rather use bound fields.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Sol

hello,
you may try this way.First do some initializations in the form_load
eventhandler like this:

for(int i = 0 ; i < prodDS1.Products.Rows.Count; i++)
{
prodDS.ProductsRow dr = (prodDS.ProductsRow) prodDS1.Products.Rows[i];
TreeNode node = treeView1.Nodes.Add(dr.ProductName);
node.Tag = i;
}
Save the position of the row instead of the reference.

Then in the event_handler of treeView_afterSelect event get the treeview's
BindingContext, then the CurrencyManager and set it's Position using the
saved value in node.Tag, Like this:

TreeNode node = e.Node;
Int32 pos = (Int32) node.Tag;
BindingContext bc = treeView1.BindingContext;
CurrencyManager cm = bc[prodDS1,"Products"] as CurrencyManager;
if (cm != null)
cm.Position = pos;
else MessageBox.Show ("Invalid currency manager");

Now , it should be ok.

Thanks,

I had tried almost exactly the same code without success.
Your code works though, the differnce being that where I
had..

CurrencyManager cm = bc[prodDS1.Products] as
CurrencyManager;

You recommended ...

CurrencyManager cm = bc[prodDS1,"Products"] as
CurrencyManager;

I thought the two should be equal. I have things working
but need to test Adds and deletes to make sure that the
dataset position values don't change for existing rows
when items are added or removed.

Thanks for the help
Sol

The method may not work if the dataset is modified, for example, by another
thread.

You can retrieve the all other fields of the current record based on the
key field and display them, though you will have to write more codes to
implement it.
