[Resolved] Problem with data-bound controls validation

[mf12]

Doing it manually would probably be better, yes, but that's exactly what I'm avoiding since I have about 50 different fields on that single table so creating them automatically saves a whole lot of work.

This is what I came up with, probably not the best solution, but it works:

Private Sub GenericTextBox_Validating(sender As Object, e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs)
        If sender.Text.Length = 0 Then
            sender.CausesValidation = False
            Dim currentRow As DataRowView = TryCast(EnsaiosBindingSource.Current, DataRowView)
            currentRow.BeginEdit()
            currentRow(sender.DataBindings.Item("Text").BindingMemberInfo.BindingField) = System.DBNull.Value
            currentRow.EndEdit()
            sender.CausesValidation = True
        End If
    End Sub

Thank you for your help Kevin.
