The best part of the fix are the sarcastic oneliners :D

I believe, internal is C# equivalent for friend in VB. Since I do not do VB, I tried in C# and following binding flags work fine for me: BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance

An empty string cannot be converted to a Decimal so the conversion throws an error. Change the empty string to "0" and it should work just fine. If you need it to return a different type (this has the smell of a homework project) try replacing the CType block with a different value, like 0.0 or Nothing.

This looks like it was converted from an old dialect of Basic. The only thing I see as "odd" is the & Chr(8), since the check for < 32 would catch all the common Ctl chars, including Bksp, anyway. But my guess is that it was converted and modified a couple of time to end up with that. The Dim Index As Short = textBox1.GetIndex(eventSender) line looks like something left over from a previous mod or from some debugging effort. It doesn't look like Index is used at all.

Ok so it was the 'propertyName' that was incorrect, my mistake, sorry ! All is well :) and thank you for your input. :doh:

Yes. But is it possible ?

This strange behavior is when : WindowState="Maximized" otherwise this works ok.

Thanks. I use c# for my own projects, and VB.Net at work, so I get to see both sides of the coin, and struggle to get the two to do the same. I do prefer the flexibility and control in c#, but some of the RAD tools embedded in VB.Net are excellent. I wish it were possible to code classes in the same project in different languages so I could use the most appropriate one for the task at a class level. If that included managed C++ for some of the restricted stuff like Extended MAPI then even better. If you have knowledge, let others light their candles at it.

workround: If I sort from code I have a work round to add the images again after DatagridView.Sort() but if a user sorts by clicking then I need a event like 'AfterSort' or something which doesn't seem to exist ... ... °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° -- Inter Access Belgium --
