Re: Datagrid Help
1. Load data from the database into tArray. 2. Set the dgData of the data grid to tArray to display the data. Make a back up of the initial data to tBackupArray. 3. After the user edits the data in the data grid, say, he clicks a button Save Write the dgData of the data grid to the database. 4. If the write is successful, put the dgData of the data grid into tBackupArray. If the write is unsuccessful, set the dgData of the data grid to tBackupArray.

Re: Datagrid Help
Sri, Thank you for the response and I wish I would have explained a bit more. I need to update the database one cell at a time preferably on some sort of closeField type of message. I have multiple users updating the same payroll grid at the same time. If I save the entire grid at once, I would erase changes made (at the same time) to other cells in the grid. Your method is simple to code yes but I need more granularity in what changes I save and when. I would like to trigger a save to db when I see a closeField type of message. This is what I do when I roll my own datagrid. My home made datagrids never look as good or work as well when scrolling as the LC Datagrid.

Re: Datagrid Help
Hi Jim, It's pretty complicated to explain on the list but you can certainly do that. Take a look at the Datagrid Manual section titled How Do I Open A Table Cell For Editing. It tells how how to grab the data after the user has finished editing a cell and do whatever you need to do with it.

Re: Datagrid Help
As Peter points out http://lessons.runrev.com/m/datagrid/l/7337-how-do-i-save-changes-the-user-makes-in-an-editor-field-to-an-external-data-source explains how you can i) override EditFieldText with only one parameter, in which case it won't automatically save and refresh the data grid, but you'll have to ii) edit closeFieldEditor to write to the database and, if successful, update dgData and then set it, which will refresh datagrid. But, wouldn't the problem remain, that other users simultaneously updating a (different) cell of the datagrid would lose their edits as soon as you save one edited cell and refresh the datagrid (by setting the dgData)? Each user editing a copy of the datagrid would likely resolve this problem.

Datagrid Help
Folks, I would like to use the Datagrid to allow users to: 1) Display data like a spreadsheet 2) Let the user edit the data if the data is changed I would like to update a remote database with that cells update If the database update was successful, I would update the data in the Datagrid If the database update was *not* successful, I would like to return to the old value. Pretty straight forward I can build my own data grid but it seems cleaner to use the Datagrid in LC...I just *CAN NOT* figure this thing out. I've built my own data grid in the past and I am very familiar with the database side...just not able to get the Datagrid thing going. I've been through the lessons so I must be just missing something Thank you! ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode

Hi. DG's are mysterious. But perhaps you can give some examples of what you are up against?

Re: Datagrid help - change value in form
I think you have to get the array corresponding to the row, change the value for the key corresponding to the cell, then set it back again. put the dgDataOfIndex [ pIndex ] of group DataGrid into pDataA put This is new data into pDataA[ newdata ] set the dgDataOfIndex [ pIndex ] of group DataGrid to pDataA You can substitute Index with Row if that is what you are working with.
