Example

The following code example shows how to use this property in a custom editing control. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the IEditingControl class.

public class ListBoxEditingControl : ListBox, IEditingControl
{
    public ListBoxEditingControl()
    {
        this.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.None;
    }

    private GcMultiRow _gcMultiRow;

    // MultiRow control will set this property when editing begins. Editing control can use this property.
    public GcMultiRow GcMultiRow
    {
        get
        {
            return _gcMultiRow;
        }
        set
        {
            _gcMultiRow = value;
        }
    }

    private int _rowIndex;

    // MultiRow control sets this property when editing begins. Editing control can use this property.
    public int RowIndex
    {
        get
        {
            return _rowIndex;
        }
        set
        {
            _rowIndex = value;
        }
    }

    // 1. When editing begins, MultiRow should initial this property.
    // 2. When editing ends, MultiRow uses this property's value as the cell value.
    public object FormattedValue
    {
        get

    }
