Hello,
I’m working with RepositoryItemComboBox editors in XtraGrids. When updating a DataRow I need access to the underlaying ComboBoxEdit control to read its SelectedIndex property.
The active editor is null.
How can I realize that?
Regards
Manfred

Hello Manfred,
Thank you for the question. I'm afraid that this is not possible, because the editor itself is present only when the corresponding column is switched to Editing mode. However, you can obtain the necessary cell's value using the GrdView's GetRowCellValue method. After that, you can use this value to obtain the required index through the RepositoryItemCOmboBox object:
object v = <gridView>.GetRowCellValue(<gridView>.FocusedRowHandle, <aComboBoxColumnFieldName>); int index = <repositoryItemComboBoxEdit>.Items.IndexOf(v);However, I don't think that this is the best solution. Could you please clarify why you need to obtain a selected index? I'll try to find better solution for you.
Thanks,
Stan.
