Infragistics Windows Grid

Question

I'm using the Infragistics WinForms UltaGrid control and I'm setting the RegexPattern property. How do I get the grid cell I'm setting the RegEx for to actually use that pattern to restrict entry? Or am I misunderstanding how the RegexPattern property works.

Answer 1

Which version of NetAdvantage are you using? There is no RegexPattern property of the UltraGridCell class in NetAdvantage 2008.

However, if you are refering to the RegexPattern property of the UltraGridColumn class it will do what you want. The value of the cell must give exactly one match or else the validation will fail.

Answer 2

RegexPattern property for the column is used for cell value validation. So if you set this property and your user tries to edit a value in the column, it will be validated against this Regex, after he is done.
