Hello,

my int values in a column should look like "34 m³". I tried to set the
Format Property of the DefaultCellstyle from the column to "0 m³" or "0\"
m³\"". The DataGridView displays it correct, but when I edit the value "34
m³" by deleting the first number to "4 m³" I get an ParsingError. It works
when I delete all inclusive "m³" and writing "4" in the cell.
I also tried a standard Format for example "C2". This works perfect!

Is this a bug or did I something wrong??

Regards,

Jürgen Steinmetz

AFAIK it can only parse some basic formattings. So you need to handle
DataGridView.CellParsing and parse the string to a number yourself.

If you have any problems doing this, let me know.

HTH,
