Datagrids and Nested Behaviors

[Bob Sneidar]

Actually Tom, I think I figured out a way around this. I've already put my stack scripts for the subModules into behaviors. By adding a selectionChanged handler in that behavior and checking to see if the dgControl of the target is empty, I can pass selectionChanged for fields and handle it for datagrids. Word 5 to -1 of the dgControl is the long id of the datagrid. 

The only bugaboo will be when I send selectionChanged. The target will not be a control of the datagrid, but I can work that out easily enough. 

Thanks for kicking my mind in the butt.

I have a main form, where all the datagrids behave the same way on doubleMouseUp, selectionChanged etc. I then have what I call subForms (substacks that detail a given table and it's dependent tables like devices and accessories for example) that behave in a different way, but all subForm datagrids have the same behavior, different from the main form.
