WPF DataGrid Get Current Row

Data Grid – Get Current Row. E.g. For Jump to Details – Data Grid Button Click

<DataGrid.Columns>
<DataGridTemplateColumn Header="Details" Width="80">
<DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Button x:Name="JumpButtonColumn" Content="{Binding Path=AdviceNoteNo}" Click="JumpButtonColumn_Click"></Button>
</DataTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn>>

And the Code

private void JumpButtonColumn_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
if (invoiceDataGrid.CurrentColumn != null && invoiceDataGrid.CurrentColumn.DisplayIndex == 0)
{
Invoice myInvoice = ((FrameworkElement)sender).DataContext as Invoice;
Jump(myInvoice.InvoiceNo);
}
};

or

Private Sub JumpButtonColumn_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs)
   If AdviceNoteDataGrid.CurrentColumn IsNot Nothing AndAlso AdviceNoteDataGrid.CurrentColumn.DisplayIndex = 0 Then
       Dim myAdviceNote As AdviceNote = CType((CType(sender, FrameworkElement)).DataContext, AdviceNote)
       Jump(myAdviceNote.AdviceNoteNo)
   End If
End Sub

End

WPF Quick Reminders

Windows Forms Integration

Dim myControl1 = New WpfControlLibrary.CustomControl1
 myControl1.Content = "Hello World"
Me.ElementHost1.Child = myControl1

Docking

You may want HorizontalAlignment or VerticalAlignment = “Stretch”

DataBinding

Imports System.Data.Entity

private AccountTypeContext _context = new AccountTypeContext();
private CollectionViewSource myCollectionViewSource;
//Next in Loaded. If in user control then:
// Do not load your data at design time.
if (!System.ComponentModel.DesignerProperties.GetIsInDesignMode(this))
{ }
 myCollectionViewSource = (CollectionViewSource)this.Resources["accountTypeViewSource"];
_context.AccountTypes.Load();
myCollectionViewSource.Source = _context.AccountTypes.Local;

DataBinding – BindingNavigator Functions

        private void MoveFirstButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            myCollectionViewSource.View.MoveCurrentToFirst();
        }
        private void MovePreviousButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            myCollectionViewSource.View.MoveCurrentToPrevious();
        }
        private void MoveNextButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            myCollectionViewSource.View.MoveCurrentToNext();
        }
        private void MoveLastButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            myCollectionViewSource.View.MoveCurrentToLast();
        }
//

It may be necessary to use
myDataGrid.ScrollIntoView(myDataGrid.SelectedItem);

DataBinding – Filter

In _Loaded

       myCollectionViewSource.Filter += new FilterEventHandler(FilterTextBoxLike);
In Code - assuming you have a text box called FilterTextBox
        #region Filter
        bool FilterClearing;
        private void FilterTextBox_TextChanged(object sender, TextChangedEventArgs e)        {
            try             {
                if (FilterClearing == false)                    {
                        RefreshList();                    }
            }
            catch (Exception ex)            {
                MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);    
            }
        }

        private void RefreshList()
        {
            myCollectionViewSource.View.Refresh();
        }

        private void FilterTextBoxLike(object sender, FilterEventArgs e)
        {
            AccountType at = e.Item as AccountType;

            if (at.AccountType1.ToLower().Contains(FilterTextBox.Text.ToLower()))
            {
                e.Accepted = true;
            }
            else
            {
                e.Accepted = false;
            }
        }

        private void ClearFilterButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            try
            {
		FilterClearing = true;
               FilterTextBox.Text = "";
		RefreshList();
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
		MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);                
            }
            FilterClearing = false;
        }

Data Grid – Styles

DatePicker as UK style date

Two actions seem to be required

Imports System.Globalization
Imports System.Threading

Namespace My

Partial Friend Class MyApplication

Private Sub MyApplication_Startup(sender As Object, e As Microsoft.VisualBasic.ApplicationServices.StartupEventArgs) Handles Me.Startup
Dim ci = New CultureInfo(Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.Name)
ci.DateTimeFormat.ShortDatePattern = “dd-MMM-yyyy”
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = ci
End Sub

End Class

End Namespace

<DatePicker Name=”DateReportedTextBox” Text=”{Binding Path=DateReported, StringFormat={}{0:dd-MMM-yyyy}}” />

End
