Data Grid - Select whole row when cell selected 1

[spangeman]

Hello

I would like to be able to code my data grid (2005) so that when one cell is selected the whole row is selected instead.

So everytime a cell is clicked on the whole row is selected as if the user had click to the far left to select the whole row.

Cheers

i had to dig a bit for this... I just could not remember how
Anyway the way to do it is to use the DataGridViewSelectionMode.FullRowSelect, something like:

 myDataGridView.SelectionMode = DataGridViewSelectionMode.FullRowSelect;

hope this helps

Thanks

I couldn't do it like that as I'm using an old 2003 datagrid which doesn't have that property.

I did this instead:-

private void DataGrid_CurrentCellChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
DataGrid.Select(DataGrid.CurrentRowIndex);
}

Seemed to do the trick.

Thanks for your help though.

It was the (2005) bit that made me think it was the DGView. Glad you are sorted and thanks for the star
