Ok, so I took your advise and went with the "Class" option, I stole bits of code from here and there and cobbled together the solution and added it to the original question.

However; not sure if you would have done it the same??, and it seems a bit long and wordy could you suggest a way to reduce code?

Thank you for your suggestion, I will include this in my project to see if it works and get back to you. I'm happy you can understand the problem.

so is that a no to all three questions?
no you dont get it
no you wouldnt choose it and no you dont see another way

Now that you have seen my answer to my own question are you any closer to understanding the original question?

And would you have chosen it or can you now see another solution ?

Avoiding ambiguity; you're reply should have been "you can't add a screen shot".

you can.


Private Sub CmdNext_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles CmdNext.Click
Me.MyBindingSource.MoveNext() 'THIS MOVES THE FOCUS TO THE NEXT CELL
End Sub

like I said to the other guy the code i have is not the issue :)

How can I add a screen shot here??

no code
just drag and drop

umm, datagridview, from the dataset...

"derived" from a details view, and I'm not sure what that means

when u add a datasource you can drag a gridview onto the form. There is also an option the have the display set to details

You can also have gridview and details the same form that is how I'm working......

ok for what its worth, but I think its beside the point :)
I mean as far as im concerned there is no code, the data in the cell is submitted after you move off of the cell, this behaviour must be part of what happens under the covers with a datagridview yes??

In the code below I use a field from details view to hold the string, I'm using a gridview and details view on the same form, sorry its hard to explain.




Private Sub CmdInsertImage_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles CmdInsertImage.Click

OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog()
FilePathTextBox.Text = OpenFileDialog1.FileName
'assign filename to FilepathTextBox. This field is derived from a details view
'that comes from the dataset.
TxtFileName.Text = OpenFileDialog1.SafeFileName 'not important
ImagePictureBox.Image = Image.FromFile(FilePathTextBox.Text) 'not important
DatestampDateTimePicker.Value = Now 'not important

End Sub

Yes; Your link proved to be the "Quick" fix for me. will flag yours as answer if nothing else pops up in a day or two.
Anyway people should check you link as it does contain useful stuff for calender.

Thanks for your input.

Yes; I wanted to try your answer but couldnt figure how to make it in VB.net
I tried C# to VB.NET translation tool but no cigar.
Thanks for ur input :-)
