Hi,
How can i validate user input in a datagrid ?
I want a column to accept just numeric values. If the user enter Text then
the changes must be rejected and the value set to waht it was earlier.
Thanks in advance

You will have to override the DataGridTextBoxColumn and handle it in the
keypress event. There may be a way to drill down and handle the event
without having to create your own class, but I can't think of where to
do that off the top of my head.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for your reply. The DataColumn constructor has a way to specify
the type of the data that it can accpet so we jusy specify it there instead
of a Keypress event.
