NumericUpDown bound value

[Guest]

I have a problem w/ a data-bound numeric updown control. If I modify the
control's value via the keyboard (i.e., type in numbers), then call
AcceptChanges, the new value is not saved and reverts to the old. But if I
use the mouse to click on its up-down arrows, the value gets saved fine. I'm
suspecting that this may be a bug w/ the control so what I did was put the
following code in KeyDown:

updAge.Value = updAge.Value

This solves the problem but I'd like to know if anyone else encountered this
behavior or has a better workaround? Thanks =)

You may need to tab outof the control, or change focus away from the control
for the value to get commited to the data source.

Nope, tabbing out or moving focus away from the control still doesn't cut it.

You can add an event handler for the value changed event of the
numericUpDown and confirm when the value is actually getting updated. If
on entering the value from the kbd and then tabbing out of the control
does not change the value then it is a definite problem.
