Dim Projectpos As Integer

You can get the DataRowView from BindingSource.current, then The Dataview, then Find the row
Dim Rv = TryCast(QuoteBindingSource
if Rv isnot nothing then
Dim v = rv.DataView
Dim colpos = v.Table.Columns("QuotesID"
For n = 0 To v.Count - 1
If v(n)(colpos ).Equals(ValueToFind) Then QuoteBindingSource.Positio
Next
end if
I found the answer after much Continued searching on the web .
I appreciate the suggestion from codecruiser but I was moving to the projectbindingsource first. The problem is that the Quotesbindingsource does not have the Columns in it directly as I suspected I just did not know how to access them.
as for x77 his answer did resolve the problem with a type change on the valuetofind so even though his solution is not the solution I would/will use since it did actually reslove my problem I am awarding the points to x77.
below is the answer I will use.
When you want to Find a row on a related BindingSource you should use the overload that takes the PropertyDescriptor.
Dim pdc As System.ComponentModel.Prop
pdc = QuoteBindingSource.Currenc
Dim Quotepos As Integer
Quotepos = QuoteBindingSource.Find(pd
QuoteBindingSource.Positio
Enjoy!
Below is the Code That I decided to use. I found it on another site after hours of searching.
while it is not the code that x77 gave his solution also worked and for that I am awarding him the points.
This code was just cleaner and easier to use.
Dim Projectpos As Integer
Projectpos = ProjectBindingSource.Find(
ProjectBindingSource.Posit
Dim pdc As System.ComponentModel.Prop
pdc = QuoteBindingSource.Currenc
Dim Quotepos As Integer
Quotepos = QuoteBindingSource.Find(pd
QuoteBindingSource.Positio

Because it is a relation, the QuoteBindingSource is only populated with quotes related to currently selected project. To be able to search this, you first need to position the ProjectBindingSource to the related projectid and then you can do the find on the quotes.
