| Cell Editing Techniques > How Cell Editing Works > Determining modification status |
While editing is in progress, you can inspect the DataChanged property of the grid to determine whether the user has made any changes to the current row. Similarly, you can inspect the DataChanged property of an individual column to determine whether the user has made any changes to a specific cell within the current row.
You can set the grid's DataChanged property to False to exit editing, discard all changes to the current row, and refresh the current row display from the data source.
The DataChanged property of a Column object is read-only.
The icon in the record selector column of the current row reflects the status of the grid's DataChanged property. If DataChanged is False, a triangle-shaped arrow will be shown in the record selector column. If DataChanged is True, a pencil icon will appear instead.
