Mettez en Français Silverlight sur votre site puisqu'il est en Anglais et que je n'y comprend rien du tout en Anglais donc en Français sa serait bien, et je ne suis pas le seul Français qui ne comprend pas l'Anglais.

Merci

Why is paste not available 'out of the box'? Wasn't that a feature in Visual Basic 3's DataGrid? And why is it taking so long for VS2008 to aquire a WPF grid when WPF 3.0 was out for VS2005 in 2006?

rod mac,

As it turns out, the implementation of Paste is more specific to the app. It was for some of the same reasons that Winforms DataGridView did not implement it either.

For the DataGrid coming out at this stage, WPF is a brand new platform with a number of new capabilities we introduced first in 2006. With any new platform and especially one as broad as WPF, there’s a lot of ground to cover with tools, controls, features. It has taken us longer than we expected but we feel very good about the set of improvements we’ve made since V1 and we’re particularly pleased to be shipping very capable DataGrid. We hope you find it meets your needs.

Any hints on how might impliment different types of pastes? For example, lets say the user copies one cell in Excel to paste to 10 cells in the WPF datagrid?

This is great thank you.

I found it doesn't cater for columns that have been dragged out of order (and starts pasting all over the place). If I do this, will post the code back.

I am using Toolkit datagrid and looking for built in (cut, copy, paste).

I am using MVVM pattern and my cells are using CellTemplate when row is selected and in edit mode it uses CellEditingTemplate.

I would like to get copy,paste keybord shortcuts and context menu.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

sachin

Great article. How can i get context menu to show up? I would like to right click and paste.

Ok. I am able to add context menu in your sample by creating windows resource context menu and setting it on defaultCellStyle.

<Window.Resources>

</ContextMenu>

</Window.Resources>

and then set grid cell style as follows

<local:CustomDataGrid

CellStyle="{StaticResource defaultCellStyle}" >

Thought someone might find it helpful.

Thanks,
