Hi, Boki and other users who wish to convert NG5 to NG6:

 

In NextGrid5 OnCellClick when used with a NxCheckBox sees the boolean state as FALSE, whereas NextGrid6 sees the CheckBox boolean state as TRUE when clicking on the cell that is visually unchecked.

 

Example from my code:

 

 IF (Columns[ACol] IS TNxCheckBoxColumn) AND

        ((Pos('INDICATED', UpperCase(Columns[ACol].Header.Caption)) > 0) OR

        (Pos('INDCT''D', UpperCase(Columns[ACol].Header.Caption)) > 0)) AND

        Cell[ACol, ARow].AsBoolean THEN

 

The intent is to then delete all cells in the row when UNCHECKING the Indicated column.

 

In NextGrid5 it works for the above code; in NextGrid6, I had to add "not" to "Cell[ACol, ARow].AsBoolean THEN" for it to work.

Hi Chuck,

 

Have you tried using this event http://help.bergsoft...nCheckedChanged instead? Maybe is the better place for that kind of operation.

Thank you for the tip, Boki.

I tried that and it certainly seems the best event for what I was trying to do. When using it though, it actually changed the behavior of a form I pop up when clicking on a grid cell expecting a value. This form is a vernier which allows for quick visual value selection 1-1000 and it ceases to function. I have no idea why using this OnCheckedChanged event would do that, but since I got everything to function by using the OnCellClick event by simply reversing the logic test for checked state (actually cell.asBoolean), I have decided not to use your suggestion. Nor did I trace why simply changing that event, which only deals with the checked columns, not the cells for accepting a value, would affect the Vernier form. 

 

I doubt if this is a bug in NextGrid6, just some logic issue in my code.
