Default Anyone found a painless method of updating within the datagrid?


I am currently using the CurrentCellChanged event to trigger updates. But I
feel like a one-armed paper-hanger with all the different issues involved.
Is there a better event or easier technique of catching changes and updating
them (VS2003)?

For the past 15 years I have spent untold hours battling Microsoft
Grids so take my hard earned advice and go buy a good 3rd party grid.

It will pay for itself many times over.

I have the FarPoint Spread, and it is pretty neat, but not always the best
solution. I've used the Infragistics stuff with COM, but their complexity
and lack of documentation makes them a poor choice this go-round. Got any
thoughts?

I am using the Janus Windows Suite. I have found the product to be
very stable and the 2003 version even works with VS2005.

I would consider their documentation to be marginal at best - examples
in the technical documentation are for the most part non-existent. In
general you have to comb through the example application code they
provided to kind of figure things out. Having said all that the
product is definitely usable and very well done. It works the way I
think it should work and I have found no cases where I have to
remember weird idiosyncrasies.

Highly recommended.
