I have a devexpress Grid with GridView and there is the possibility to add new rows to the grid. But one of the columns is a RepositoryItemLookupEdit and when there needs to entered a new value it looks to the current values so the casing does not keep like it is typed.
For example: we have employees that work for firm ‘Be care’ and now I want to add a new employee which is working for the firm ‘BEE’. When I try to type ‘BEE’ in the firm field it will find ‘Be care’ and thus make it ‘BeE’. We would like to keep it like we type it because it is not always easy to tell people how to work around this issue (which is possible by typing ‘BeEE’ and then delete the ‘e’).
How can we solve this?
It is possible to do. You just need to handle the special event: ProcessNewValue. This event allows you to catch the moment when a new value is accepted, an add this value to the list, if required.
