Datagrid row/column value selection

[jadepatel]

Hi,

I wanted to ask anyone if they have done anything silimar to this...
I have the following code to highlight the entire row when any cell of the datagrid is clicked...

Private Sub DGrid1_MouseUp(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles DGrid1.MouseUp
'code to select whole line from the datagrid when any cell is clicked
Dim pt = New Point(e.X, e.Y)
Dim hti As DataGrid.HitTestInfo = DGrid1.HitTest(pt)
If hti.Type = DataGrid.HitTestType.Cell Then
DGrid1.CurrentCell = New DataGridCell(hti.Row, hti.Column)
DGrid1.Select(hti.Row)
End If
End Sub


The Datagrid contains the results of a query that is run against my database.
What i wanted to do is when the user highlights a row in the way shown above, i need to retrieve the value that is stored in the first column of that specific row. I then want this value to be put into a variable so that i can use it as a parameter for a delete query.
Is this possible??


I am using VS.NET 2002 and am creating a windows app using VB.NET

Can anyone plz help me to try and solve this problem?

just get the current row/col cell instead..

jadepatel,

Once the entire row is selected this is the code that I use to get the needed cells from within the datagrid.

dr = dsData.Tables("Info").Rows(dgSchoolList.CurrentRowIndex)

The just use the column names within the datarow to populate your variables or even textboxes on the screen.

Hope this helps,

Brian
