Updating RadGridView after Editing Records in Real Time

Question

I'm using Linq and a DBML in my project. I fill my radgridview with one of my tables like this:

gridTarget = db.tblCustomers;

Records will list in the grid. I'm using some child forms to edit and insert new customers. (I'm not doing it via the gridview). After editing/inserting a record How can I update the grid in real time (after closing that child form)?

Answer 1

1. Before editing the item, find it in the Items collection of the gridview and call the EditItem(item) method of the Items collection:

    Club selectedItem = this.clubsGrid.SelectedItem as Club; this.clubsGrid.Items.EditItem(selectedItem); 

2. Modify the object and then call the CommitEdit() method of the Items collection:

    selectedItem.Name = "new Name of the item"; this.clubsGrid.Items.CommitEdit();
