When a manager views timeSheet entries for an employee, then switches to the next week (selecting from cboEmployeeWeekEnding) - the value from the cell which had the focus on the first timesheet entry gets "left behind" - ie the new week's timesheet data is loaded into the grid, but the value in the cell which had the focus still shows the value from the previous week (and is a darker shade of grey - focus color?).

I'm not experiencing this problem at all and cannot reproduce it. When I click on the combo box, the data grid loses focus and the highlighted cell becomes the same color as the other cells and the values from the timesheet for the new week ending date are loaded just fine.

Can you provide any more details on the problem you are experiencing?

I don't know if this is a clue, but having loaded a user's timesheet I then switch to the next week's sheet, but put a breakpoint on the start of the sub LoadTimeSheet & execute the 1st 2 lines grdTimeSheet.DataSource = Nothing
grdTimeSheet.DataMember = String.Empty
then skip to the end Sub and expected to see nothing displayed on the form. However, the cell which had the focus on the 1st sheet is there all by itself.

It seems that in the normal flow, the new sheet gets displayed, but this cell is sitting on top of it.

It may be something to do with the readonly=true setting of objColumn2 thru 6. If I skip these settings, the spurious behaviour doesn't happen, and I see the sheets displayed correctly.

This does not appear to be a problem. If you run the code normally without a breakpoint and encounter a problem then let me know.

I still get the problem with the original cell's value being displayed when I view the second timesheet. (Clearly this has to be a different value in the 2 timesheets, otherwise it wouldn't be obvious).
The symptom doesn't occur if I remove the readonly attibute from the cell.
I've used the code as downloaded from the website, so no keying errors on my side.
Could this be .Net bug, which may not be in your version - I'm running 7.1.3088 of the IDE, under dotNet framework 1.1 = 1.1.4322 SP1

I'm running the same versions as you and do not experience the problem. If this is a problem for you then you might want to contact Microsoft for further assistance.
