I am comparing two cells in a grid to check that the number in col 12 is not larger than the number in col 9. But if the number in col 9 is 300, it compares as the number 3 with the 00 dropped. Both fields are defined as I5. The number in col 12 does not drop the 00s on the right. My code follows:
function OnGrid1_OnCellChange ( int col, long row, int newCol, long newRow) { if (col == 12) { Full_Inventory.Grid1.GetCell(12,row); var Delv_No = Full_Inventory.Grid1.CellGetText(); Full_Inventory.Grid1.GetCell(9,row); var Quant_Avail = Full_Inventory.Grid1.CellGetText(); if (Delv_No > Quant_Avail) { Full_Inventory.Grid1.GetCell(12,row); Full_Inventory.Grid1.CellSetText(" 0"); Full_Inventory.Grid1.SetCell(12,row); Full_Inventory.Grid1.RedrawCell(12,row); alert("Quantity to deliver is greater than quantity available."); }}}

Kent Could you alert both Delv_No and Quant_Avail before the comparison? When I use your code, I am getting the previous value for Delv_No and not the changed value. If you alert Quant_Avail are you seeing 300 or 3?

Mark, Both Delv_No and Quant_Avail alert with the proper numbers before the comparison. Quant_Avail alerts as 300 but compares as 3. Strange, huh. Kent

Kent - Could you try a quick test for me? Instead of using OnCellChange, use OnEditFinish. This will have the text of the Quant_Avail passed to it with the text parameter. See if this makes a difference.
Also, open up the form and the grid in the MDE. Click on the column and check the Width in characters for the Quant_Avail field. Make sure it is greater than 3. Then, the only other thing I can think of is, is there another Quant_Avail field somewhere on the form? Could the code be getting confused? Add a 'Z' or something to the name to make it unique.
function OnGrid1_OnEditFinish ( int col, long row, string text, boolean cancelFlag) { if (col == 12) { var Delv_No = text; alert(Delv_No); Full_Inventory.Grid1.GetCell(9,row); var Quant_Avail = Full_Inventory.Grid1.CellGetText(); alert(Quant_Avail); if (Delv_No > Quant_Avail) { alert("Bad"); } } }

Kent - I am not sure if this is the only solution, but you can use the parseFloat function so JavaScript sees the input value as a number, and not a text value. I have added it to your code and it should work now. I STILL would consider using the OnEditFinish trigger instead of OnCellChange.
