  I wanted to be able to disable certain rows from being able to be editable.

  I tried the following, where I have a field called isDetail and I use the stopEditing when the status is beforeStartEditing. That doesnt seem to work

  private editingDataView(sender: any, args: any): void {

  if (args.oldItem.isDetail === false) {
    if (args.status === 'beforeStartEditing') {
        this.dataView.stopEditing();
    }
    return;
  }

  Hi John,

  You need to set the cancel property to true for beforeStartEditing edit event.Please refer to the following code snippet and the sample demonstrating the same:

  dataView.editing.addHandler(function(e) {
    if (e.status === 'beforeStartEditing' && !e.oldItem.isDetail) {
      e.cancel = true;
    }
  });
