Hello,
I'm using VS2010. I would like to allow users to add new records directly in the "new" row of a DataGridView, and to save to the database with clicking any buttons.
I'm using Entity Framework with ObjectContext. I have implemented IDataErrorInfo in the entities. I am also using a DataGridView which implements a CurrentRowChanged event.
The DataGridView is bound to a BindingSource whose datasource is generated from an entity in the model. I'll call the entity, "Employee".
Details aside, I can't find a good resource which explains simply and directly how to use a databound DataGridView to add new records. I'd like to know which properties should be set on the grid itself and which events I should handle to achieve my goal.
I'm not using a BindingNavigator, as I'd like to be able to fill in the required fields and allow RowValidating and RowValidated to handle the creation and saving of the new entity.
Thanks for any help.
