Try setting GridView1.EditIndex property to e.NewEditIndex in the RowEditing event. Typically this assignment is made automatically, but maybe you have to explicitly set it given the data source you're using? (I'm making a guess on that)

hi, Value Changed Event is fired when you Click the Up or Down Button, you can do your calculations within that Event. Also look for Leave Event of it, Compare the Previous value with New value and then you can customize ..... if the user has changed the value through Keyboard this will work I hope this helps kss

simply type imports system.data.sqlclient dim conn as sqlconnection=new sqlconnection("data source=; initial catalog=master; uid=sa; password=;") abhinav

Hi! An other possible way would be, to store it in comment fields of file formats. Not every file format has got this comment field, but i.e. gif has it! So, if you need more information about it, I saw an article on this page which describe how to save an exe file to the comment field of an gif: http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/Steganography.asp[^] Marcel Erz

try this make a new form and place the controls on it. and in MDI change the inherit statment of MDI Class to this newly added form containing controls and see if this you need to do cheers........

Why not just make a static function "MyCompareTo" that u can call instead of string's CompareTo ?

You can always display normalized data in a non-normalized way using SQL functions, string concatenation or by simple control placement. How you display data to the user should not dictate your data model. They seldom coincide. In the example you provided, you would need three columns to hold price information unless you decided to either duplicate all row data for each price type, or move prices to a separate table. One price column in the same table would not cut it. As far as "the actual problem", there isn't one. You're trying to use standard sort routines to sort data in a non-standard way; what's more, your data appears to be stored in a fashion that is not conducive to ever having meaningful reporting or display filtering options. If you are completely devoted to storing your data in the manner you suggest, then I would advise investing some time learning how to implement the IComparable interface, and create your own collection class that's sortable. Please note that this option is less than optimal, to put it mildly. The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds the most discoveries, is not 'Eureka!' ('I found it!') but 'That's funny...’
