I have a DataGrid displaying several rows and columns of data, each is bound to its own Property. The DataGrid is NOT on a TabControl but whenever the window that it lives on is closed and reopened I get the error message: 'DeferRefresh' is not allowed during an AddNew or EditItem transaction. ONLY IF there were validations issues with one or more of the DataGrid's cells.
For example: The property bound to the DataGrid's cell is a double and the user enters "hello", of course then WPF's automatic red border is displayed around the cell. Now, if the user were to close the window, and reopen it the error would occur.
I know why the error is being thrown, because the cell is not leaving "edit mode".
How can I resolve this error?
Other Notes:
DataGrid on a TabControl (which mine is not).Cell requires a double or then only accept a double, but the problem is there are no good ways to limit the number of decimal points (".") that the user can insert. I am controlling user input through PreviewTextInput and only allowing 0-9 and ".". Exception Detail (if this helps)

I'll be happy to provide anymore information if needed.
This is a bug that was fixed with .NET Framework 4.5+. Unfortunately, for those of us stuck with previous versions the error is still a problem. The best solution I have found is to simply bind the DataGrid to properties with type string. That way, full control over user input is available. With full control, the user should not be able to trigger any errors, and theDataGrid will not crash the program.
