Lets try the CJ's ReportSample.vbp.

 

Execute it and choose "Additional Samples", "Task List Sample". In the first row modify the Due Date: go edit mode (F2 or click on the first char) and modify to 01/01/2003 (without hit enter key). When you click on inplace button (or Alt+Down Arrow) it will pop-up the calendar. The day selected is 12/12/2003 and not 01/01/2003. Thats why the Button.Item.Value is the previous one. It's not correct ...

 

You can have the requested value only in the InplaceEditChanging event (NewValue parameter). Is there another way?

 

 

 

Inside the InplaceEditChanging I set a code like this:

Private Sub ReportControl_InplaceEditChanging(...)     If Not Cancel Then         Item.Tag = NewValue     End If End Sub

 

so I can access what I need with Button.Item.Tag (instead of Button.Item.Value).

 

I would suggest CJ to implement an appropriate property:

 

EditText Property Returns or sets the text in the cell editor. Syntax [form!]VSFlexGrid.EditText[ = value As String ] Remarks The EditText property allows you to read and modify the contents of the cell editor while it is active.
