Hi TS,
Welcome to ASPNET newsgroup.
As for the Validation control for mutiple DataGrid Column problem, we did
have this problem due to the asp.net validators validation scope
limitation. They can only validate those control in the same container so
that when apply to datagrid, multiple columns are different containers for
inner controls that prevent the vaidator controls from working
correctly....
So far for such scenario, I think DataList/Repeater or other single
Template based databound control will be the suitable one ...
Also, if you do need to do serverside validation, you can create a own
serverside control which will locate control in the container cell and
other neighbour cell and compare their values....
Thanks,
Steven Cheng

| If i have a datagrid and have a textbox in 1 editItemTemplate column, and
| the compareValidator & another textbox in a different editItemTemplate,
when
| the grid is in edit mode, how do i set the controlToValidate property to
the
| textbox in the different column so that i can validate against it's data
| input?
|
| doing it like i would if they were in the same column, i get exception
says:
|
| Unable to find control id 'txtHardDate' referenced by the
'ControlToCompare'
| property of 'cvSoftLockHardDate'
|
| What is the workaround?
|
| thanks
