Specialization of the Cell class that represents a cell contained in a DataRow.

Object Model

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Class DataCell Inherits Cell Implements INotifyPropertyChanged, ISupportInitialize, IFrameworkInputElement, IInputElement, IAddChild, IHaveResources, IAnimatable, DUCE.IResource

C#
public class DataCell : Cell, INotifyPropertyChanged, ISupportInitialize, IFrameworkInputElement, IInputElement, IAddChild, IHaveResources, IAnimatable, DUCE.IResource

Example

All examples in this topic assume that the grid is bound to the Orders table of the Northwind database, unless stated otherwise.

The following example demonstrates how to change the foreground and background of the current cell.

   <xcdg:DataGridControl x:Name="OrdersGrid" 
                         ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource cvs_orders}}"/> 
</Grid>

The following example demonstrates how to provide, through a style, a new ControlTemplate for the DataCells that will display the cells as buttons.

   </Grid.Resources> 
   <xcdg:DataGridControl x:Name="OrdersGrid" 
                         ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource cvs_orders}}"/> 
</Grid>

The following example demonstrates how to provide a new style that will change the foreground color of a cell when its value fails the validation process. It uses the ShippingCostValidationRule custom validation rule defined in the previous example.
