  • Microsoft Windows CE Toolkit for Visual Basic 6.0
This article was previously published under Q215395

SYMPTOMS

The SelChange Event in the Grid control executes on a highlighted cell. The expected behavior is that the SelChange Event only executes when a cell in the grid is selected the first time.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a bug in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.

MORE INFORMATION

This section shows how to create a sample project that demonstrates the behavior.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

  1. Start a new Windows CE HPC project in Visual Basic. Form1 is created by default.
  2. Select Components from the Project menu and select the Microsoft CE Grid Control 6.0.
  3. Add a Grid control to Form1.
  4. Copy the following code to the Form1 code window: 
    Option Explicit

Private Sub GridCtrl1_SelChange()
   MsgBox "Executed SelChange Event"   
End Sub
  5. Press the F5 key to start the project. Select a particular cell in the grid. The message box appears indicating the SelChange Event has executed. Close the message box and click the same cell again.

    BUG: The same message box appears indicating the SelChange Event has executed. The expected behavior is that the SelChange event would not fire when clicking the cell that's already selected.
