Suppress SelectionChanged Event

What is the recommended way to intercept a selection change and suppress the SelectionChanged Event?
I want some kind of "All changes will be lost - Proceed?" alert box which forces the selection to stay unmodified if canceled.

Your recommendation is not really feasible as the SelectionChanged event is fired _after_ selecting the new and modifying the SelectedRows collection inside the event handler would fire yet another SelectionChanged event recursively.
So your solution would imply adding some ugly code to prevent this recursive SelectionChanged firing - which i could live with - but also produces a flickering selection in the report control.

I'd prefer to see an additional BeforeSelectionChanged or SelectionChanging event which can be trapped to control the selection behaviour of the report control.

(PS: does it make any difference if i file this as a feature request?)

any news on that?

I too have a need for that event. Seeing the time of your original post and now, it doesn't look good as a feature request, so, I'll tell you my fix. When presented with these types of problems, I usually try to reach into the Desaware Spyworks ActiveX controls which are invaluable to me. You can do this through VB subclassing, but this example is easier. I simply subclass the Report Control like and do this in the capture event.
