Try this

Dim edit as ComboboxEdit = gridview1.ActiveEditor

edit.EditValue = 96

or

edit.SelectedItem = ...

Dear CodeCruiser,
Tat was not working.

Nasir Razzaq

If you check the type of ActiveEditor, what do you get back?

It was LookUpEdit control..

private void gvCashierEntryLines_CellValueChanging(object sender, DevExpress.XtraGrid.Views.Base.CellValueChangedEventArgs e)
{
if (iWareHouse == 1)
{

LookUpEdit edit = new LookUpEdit();
edit = (LookUpEdit)gvCashierEntryLines.ActiveEditor;
edit.EditValue = 96;

//gvCashierEntryLines.SetRowCellValue(e.RowHandle, gColWHouse, 96);
//gvCashierEntryLines.UpdateCurrentRow();
}
}

}

>LookUpEdit edit = new LookUpEdit();
Dont use New with it as you are referring to an existing control not creating a new one.

Did it work?

I tried that too, it s not working....
when i removed that line and ececuted,

Note : when the system executing this line, 'edit.EditValue = 96' ... the changing event is again firing

is there any other event... ?

Nasir Razzaq

Try the validatingeditor event instead.

It is working in the validating event ... but not changing once the message appears... it changing only after the focus on the particular cell is changed..

if (gvCashierEntryLines.FocusedColumn == gColWHouse)
{
if (iWareHouse == 1)
{
e.Value = 96;
}
}

so u mean to say that its not possible to clear the particular cell or set to 'Select Warehouse' after the message box.

>it changing only after the focus on the particular cell is changed..
I thought it is working when you click on some other cell.

Its now working, but only if i click some other cell.
