Event ValueChanged not raised when edit item

Hello,

I try to give my users the opportunity to edit a large quantity of values - in the attached example the actual stock after an inventory. Every value has to be confirmed wether it is equal to the nominal stock or not to get a feedback, what is booked (value entered) already.

My idea was to set the item.value in column "actual stock" to -1, but item.caption to 0 and update the according database record in the ValueChanged event.

But ValueChanged is not raised, when the user enters the same "value" (item.caption) as displayed, although item.value is different.

Is ValueChanged event in real a "CaptionChanged" event?

See attached example.

Hi Aaron,

thanks for spending your time with my problem.

Yes of course (and I noticed it already), ValueChanged is raised, when I enter a different value than the one displayed!

But did you try to enter the same value? In detail:

• Item.Value = -1
• Item.Caption = 0
  
• Enter EditMode
• Press 0
  
• Hit the Enter-key

No event ValueChanged is raised!

Hi Aaron,

ok, it was a long week for all of us, we are awaiting the weekend and sometimes things are difficult to understand

Did you read carefully my above example? Item.Value is -1, entered string is 0. I expected the ValueChanged event raised.

I try to ask my question in another way (in awaiting an answer from support team)

When Edit mode is entered, what do I change: the value or the caption of the item?

Thanks for dicussing my problem,
Peter
