Brian,

Considering that BindBack() is virtual in both mmTextBox and mmCheckBox, I have a feeling mmDataGrid was overlooked.

Unless you're calling BindBack() directly, I suggest that you change mmDataGrid's code, making BindBack() virtual and then override it to suit your needs. When Kevin comes back next week, I'm sure he'll weigh in.

>I'm having a problem with the bindback behavior in mmGrid. There are time when I have an editable field that requires numeric or timestamp data, but is null-allowed. But because of the mmGrid.BindBack() method, I get an "System.FormatException" error when the bindback attempts to put an empty textbox value (empty string "") into a timestamp or numeric field in the dataset.
