<h5 id="C1_Win_FlexGrid_C1FlexGridBase_FinishEditing_System_Boolean__remarks">Remarks</h5>
<div class="markdown level1 remarks"><p>If the cancel parameter is set to false, the grid tries to apply the edits, 
and fires the <a class="xref" href="C1.Win.FlexGrid.C1FlexGridBase.ValidateEdit.html">ValidateEdit</a>, <a class="xref" href="C1.Win.FlexGrid.C1FlexGridBase.LeaveEdit.html">LeaveEdit</a>, and <a class="xref" href="C1.Win.FlexGrid.C1FlexGridBase.AfterEdit.html">AfterEdit</a> events as usual.
If validation fails, the grid stays in edit mode (and <a class="xref" href="C1.Win.FlexGrid.C1FlexGridBase.FinishEditing.html#C1_Win_FlexGrid_C1FlexGridBase_FinishEditing">FinishEditing()</a> returns false).</p>
<p>If the cancel parameter is set to true, the original cell value is restored and the 
grid is guaranteed to leave the edit mode. In this case, only the <a class="xref" href="C1.Win.FlexGrid.C1FlexGridBase.LeaveEdit.html">LeaveEdit</a> event fires.</p>
<p>To determine whether the grid is in edit mode, check whether the <a class="xref" href="C1.Win.FlexGrid.C1FlexGridBase.Editor.html#C1_Win_FlexGrid_C1FlexGridBase_Editor">Editor</a> property is null.</p>
