Multiple Selection on Datagrid

[besto1a]

If a user makes multiple selection on a datagrid, is there anyway I can add the row index to an arraylist or Dataset

Thanks

Here's a method:

Public Function GetSelectedRows(ByVal dg As DataGrid) As System.Collections.ArrayList
Dim al As New ArrayList()

Dim cm As CurrencyManager = Me.BindingContext(dg.DataSource, dg.DataMember)
Dim dv As DataView = CType(cm.List, DataView)

Dim i As Integer
For i = 0 to dv.Count - 1
If dg.IsSelected(i) Then
al.Add(i)
End If
End Next
Return al
End Function 'GetSelectedRows

Private Sub button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim s As String = "Selected rows:"
Dim o As Object
For Each o In GetSelectedRows(dataGrid1)
s += " " + o.ToString()
Next o
MessageBox.Show(s)
End Sub 'button1_Click

This code is from the Windows Forms FAQ, question 5.21.
