TITLE   :PRB: Values Are Not Updated in Each Column When Changing Rows
PRODUCT :Microsoft FoxPro
PROD/VER:3.00 3.00b
OPER/SYS:
KEYWORDS:

======================================================================
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, versions 3.0, 3.0b 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

Changing the ActiveRow of a grid does not update the values of the object in
every column.

CAUSE
=====

Only the object that receives the focus will have an updated value.

WORKAROUND
==========

1. Create a new property of the form named oldrow and assign an initial value of
   -1.

2. Place the following code in the grid's AfterRowColChange event:

      ******* Begin AfterRowColChange *********
      IF This.ActiveRow<>Thisform.oldrow
         Thisform.oldrow=This.ActiveRow
         FOR lnI=1 TO This.ColumnCount
            lcsource=This.Columns(lnI).ControlSource
            IF TYPE(lcsource)<>"G" AND TYPE(lcsource)<>"M"
               This.Columns(lnI).SetAll("VALUE",&lcsource)
            ENDIF
         ENDFOR
      ENDIF
      ******** End AfterRowColChange *************

STATUS
======

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Steps to Reproduce Behavior
---------------------------

1. Create a new form.

2. Add Vfp\Samples\Data\Employee.dbf to the DataEnvironment of the form.

3. Create a grid by dragging the table from the DataEnvironment to the form.

4. Run the form.

5. Open the Debug window, and type the following on the left side of the Debug
   window:

      _Screen.Forms(1).Grid1.Column1.Text1.Value
      _Screen.Forms(1).Grid1.Column2.Text1.Value
      _Screen.Forms(1).Grid1.Column3.Text1.Value
      _Screen.Forms(1).Grid1.Column4.Text1.Value

6. Select a cell inside the first column of the grid.

7. Only Grid1.Column1.Text1.Value is updated in the debug window. None of the
   other values are updated.
