Question about EditableRootList

DanEssin posted on Monday, August 28, 2006

If you've got an EditableRootList bound to a grid, is there a concept of a "current" record? In otherwords, is there some way to refer to the EditableRootList object and automatically retrieve the properties of the record that is displayed in the grid as the "current" row?

I know how to do a GetItem but that requires me to read the grid, extract the id of the item that I want to retrieve from the collection and then call GetItem. What I would like is a set of properties that always exposed values that were derived from the "current" record.

Any help would be appreciated greatly.

Currency is managed by the BindingSource control - that is one of its major responsibilities. So that is the place you should go to find the current row/object.
