Databound Update(untyped dataset)

[steroche]

I am trying to perform an update of a databound datagrid. I just cant
figue out how to update the rows and though. Every example i come
across either uses that example with the FindbyCategoryID method in a
typed dataset or uses a DataView which i dont think i want to do
either.
How do i get the inputted values of the selected fields out of the
datagrid and update the dataset from these?
Can anybody help please?
Thanks

There are many ways. One simple way is to use a primary key on the table.
When you bind the DataTable to the grid you specify a DataKeyField. Then in
the method that updates your data you find the rows in the table by using
that DataKey. I have an example on this link that does that:

This example also demonstrates how to highlight a selected row on a grid
while displaying the details of that row in another grid (which also answers
the question that you posted in another thread)
