BaseContainerValidateEditorEventArgs.Valid Property

Gets or sets whether the value is valid.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraEditors.Controls

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraEditors.v18.2.dll

Declaration

C#

public bool Valid { get; set; }

VB.NET

Public Property Valid As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean	true to indicate that the value is valid; otherwise false.

Remarks

Use the Valid property to specify whether the value meets your validity criteria. Set the property to false if the value is not valid and therefore should not be saved to the data source. If you set the property to true, the container control will try to save the value to the data source.

If the Valid property value is set to false, end-users are not allowed to move focus from the cell being edited.
