VS 2008 Retrieving The Text Of A Specific Cell In A DataGridView Control
Jul 24, 2011
how could I get the text of a specific cell in a DataGridView control ? If it matters , in my case , all the cells contain strings or nothing . For example , in order to get the text from the cell on row 2 and column 3 , what code do I have to use ? I have tried the Value property but seems that's not it . I've found some examples on the web ,but they were all for C# ... I guess , though , it has to be easy .

I'm trying to figure out how to set/change text within a cell in a DataGridView control. When I was using the MSFlexGrid, I used the TextMatrix function. How can I do a similar function in vb 2008?

I've followed the tutorial on the MSDN for this subject to the T and I'm not getting the User Control to Display in the cell.
I don't think the InitializeEditingControl is ever getting called by the Cell for some reason.
Here are my classes:
This is the actual User Control Class:
vb.net
Public Class CustomCheckBoxUC
Implements IDataGridViewEditingControl

How to programmatically change foreground color and make bold text in individual cell location on DataGridView control (Visual Basic)?
I use "dgMatrix.Rows(r).Cells(c).Value = x" to assign individual numeric values to individual cells in a DataGridView control. My question; is there a similar way to change foreground color and make bold the text in this cell, by specifying the individual row/column cell location?
For example; for cell (row 3, col 5) in the DataGridView make text in cell say red and bold or blue and bold so as to highlight and distinguish individual cell contents. As needed, I will also need to reset these properties (foreground back to automatic/black and font from bold back to regular); the reset could be done globally to the whole DataGridView as opposed to indiviaually by cell.

My program parses chat room text. In the room there are smileys that get displayed. What I'm trying to do is parse out the image URL, download the image and put the smiley in the correct spot between the text of the message.I can do the parsing and downloading of the image into the datagridview but this only works of the column is set as an image column. Obviously due to the nature of the program I need to be able to put both text and images into the same cell. How can I do this?

I have a main form with a DataGridView populated from an Access Table.So far so good.When the user clicks on a row a small form pops up and the the user can enter/edit for 2 specific fields .After that hitting the save button an update query ensures that the data are written back.Because the base table is big i don't want to refresh the dataset (at least i don't want to have the user wait for a good amount of time for a simple change.......this is acceptable only when the application is starting) and i thought given the fact that the changed data are just a few words to "edit" the datagridview cell i want so that it displays the changes.BUT i can't do that.As soon as the 2nd form where the user enters the details the DGV from the main form is unaccessible.When i try to get access to it i have a nice message "Reference to a non-shared member requires an object reference."I tried to make a object reference but nothing ...

I am making a program which remembers my last selected row in a data table. I have done this by adding a column with a CheckBox, upon CellClick the CheckBox is checked, and upon ellLeave it is unchecked and the new cell is checked, after every action a Update command is run. There will never be more than one row with a checked cell in the DataGridView,however, the data table is in a relationship with other tables, so there may be more checked cells in the data table itself. My problem now is selecting the row with that cell when I open the program and when changing between other data tables and back again.All solutions I found on selecting a specific cell in a DataGridView are referring to index numbers, and in my case I need it to find a data value in a column, I do not know the specific row, only that one row contains the value of True while everything else is False.

I need to display a list with 2 columns and "n" rows (first column will be an IP address and second column the status - say connected, failed, etc).The case is that I need to be able to SET and GET the value of a certain cell. For instances, if the user click the first row of the list (row 0), I want to be able to get what is the intersection 0,0 (IP of first row) and intersection 1,0 (status of first row) and so on.I am trying Listview and Datagridview with no success.

How to select one cell and mulitple cells in a table using the webbrowser control. E.g. If the web page (local) that I'm viewing in the webbrowser control has tables present in it. When I click on a cell in the table I want to be able to edit the attributes of the cell like adding an align or a class attribute. I think this is possible without using mshtml which I'm trying to avoid as I can't find much user friendly documentation on it.
The text in the webbrowsercontrol is loaded with the foll:
WebBrowser1.DocumentText = Form1.RichTextBox1.Text
So I am guessing that I need to be able to detect when a cell is selected (<td></td> tag etc) or clicked on and then from that point I can edit the attributes of that specific cell (<td class="jimmy"></td> tag etc).

I am filling a DataGridView from a table in SQL Server 2008. There is one column that is a string which contains either "YES" or "NO".When I run and display the DataGridView it displays perfectly. For the User's benefiy, if the field contains "NO" I want to put some emphasis on it by changing the fore color and back coler of the entire row. In the DGV the index for field is (4).I tried this code which threw an error on the word "value" inthe block that fills the DGV.
IF DGV,Columns(4),Value="NO"....

I am using a list<of T> as a data source for a datagridview and would like to handle the draw event of the datagridview to evaluate the string length of the column cell. If larger than a particular number then I would just do something like
cell.value = string.substring(0,(whatever number I need it to be)).

As I have no idea on how to retrieve access data at the specific location in the table, so I wrote VBA code t export the entire access database to a datagridview which is located in the form1. There's a column of datagridview contain complete address information of a image. I'm thinking a way to link image source (of form 2 or xaml file) to the the column so that the image will be displayed. is there any code to get cell value at the specific location in the table? In excel VBA, sheets("Sheetname").Cells(rownumber, columnnumber).value is used to get the cell value, but how about code for this case?

I am having problem setting focus on specific cell in my Datagridview1 . On Form1 when clicking on cell 3 in any row, I am callig a Dialog1. However, when done working with it, and closing the Dialog1, the focus returns to cell 3 in my Datagridview1 . I like to set the focus on the next cell(4) making it the current cell.
I have tryed :
DataGridView1.SelectionMode = DataGridViewSelectionMode.CellSelect
DataGridView1.CurrentCell = DataGridView1.Item(4, e.RowIndex)
DataGridView1.CurrentCell = DataGridView1.CurrentRow.Cells(4)
And few other things, I am always getting this exception: Operation is not valid because it results in a reentrant call to the SetCurrentCellAddressCore function.

I know this will be easy, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. How do you SET the current row in a gridview? I find tons of ways to get data from it, but I what to set a current row or cell programatically. I'm using VB 2008 express. I also find lots of promising properties like Selected... but these are all read only and i can't set them.

I have a datagrid control on my form that receives data from a device on the COM port. I strip out the data I need and put it into the currently selected cell. When I load the grid, I find the first empty cell and set the focus so each load presents the user with an empty cell to start receiving data. Once I get the measurement, I need to move to the next cell down (like hitting enter in the grid). This will allow the user to do measurements with the external device without having to move to the next cell.

I followed an example to add a custom control (multicolumnCombobox) to my datagridview.[code]Ok, this is fine and dandy, for it adds the custom control to column 2 and row X of that loop.... Now, when I actually use the control for lets say row 0, how do I get the row 0 cell 2 value to be the same as the custom control??I have no way to communicate between the custom control and the datagridview cell.

I have a form with four checkboxs and a textbox for an id number.I also have two tables in a database. The first has a column for the users Id, Name, and a column called Points.The second has a column for Id and one called Letters.What i want to do is, after the user enters the id number, and the user clicks checkboxA it should add a certain number, lets say 5, to the "points" cell for that id#(in the first database), and it should put the letter "a" in the "letters" column (of the second database) for that id number. Also, if a user deselects a checkbox it should remove the "a" from letters and subtract 5 from points.Also there will be different letters in the "letters" cell, so i cant just clear it, but i have to remove the specific letter.

I am trying to display a custom control in a datagridview cell so that I can show nicely formatted information.
I am quite comfortable with the use of datagridview control accepting a list of objects as its datasource. I am also comfortable with populating the cell contents in the cellformatting event.
So I am planning to, instead of using a normal textbox control, button control and linkedtext control in datagridview cell, display my own custom control which is good one for displaying some custom data like, name, address, telephone, photo and others. It would be a nice improvement in my application.

I have a DataGridView where Cell_Validating is being done. I have a Cancel button on my form that allows the user to exit out of the DataGridView changes. The problem is that if a cell was currently flagged as in error, I cannot exit and remove columns from the DataGridView. I get the following error: Operation did not succeed because the program cannot commit or quit a cell value change. Is there a way to cancel the validation once the focus has been removed from the DataGridView? Here is my Cell_Validating

I have added a custom Control to my project, but every time I edit it and rebuild the form that I use the custom control in adds the project name in front of the control and won't compile. i.e. Project name = MyProject, Custom Control name = MyControl. When I rebuild the project after editing my control I get an error, MyProject.MyControl doesn't exist. If I remove the MyProject from the line it compiles and runs fine until next time I edit the custom control.
I can't figure out what I would be doing wrong to cause this, or why it is putting the project name in front of the control, but then not accepting it. I am also struggling figuring out how to change the back color on an individual cell in an Datagridview Combo Box. The style.backcolor property of the cell doesn't seem to do anything.
