Hello Norman,

There is an explanation regarding this issue from our Developer, so in sort you should set MaxLengh of the column which should display your ValueList to int.MaxValue (and its corresponding data column is limited to 4 symbols ):

ultraGrid1.DisplayLayout.Bands[0].Columns[0].MaxLength = int.MaxValue;

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Thanks Hristo - lloking forward to your findings.

Hello,

 I have create a support ticket for you with id CAS-95365-X61B0S, in order to investigate this further for you. I will update you through support ticket about the progress of this issue as soon as I have information for you.

Thank you for using Infragistics Components.

Hello Mike,

The ValueList does have a value list that has both the DataValue adn Display Text properties assigned.

I also found this to be true when using a DropDown editor control that has a dataset as its source.  It appears to only occur if the bound value is a string (for the DataValue).  When the list is based on having the DataValue as a GUID or Int, the problem does not appear to exist.

Thanks,

NormD

If the grid column has a ValueList which is using DisplayText and DataValue, then the grid should not be limiting the user to entering a fixed number of characters. That sounds like a bug to me.

You may be able to work around it by setting the MaxLength property of the column.

If that doesn't work, then try this:

        private void ultraGrid1_ControlAdded(object sender, ControlEventArgs e)
        {
            UltraGrid grid = (UltraGrid)sender;
            if (grid.ActiveCell.Column.Key == "My ValueList Column")
            {
                TextBox textBox = e.Control as TextBox;
                if (textBox != null)
                {
                    textBox.MaxLength = 0;
                }
            }
        }
