Hi,
I'm new to the DataGridView control and it is really nice, however, it can be difficult to use.
3 of my colomns is a of Type DataGridViewCheckBoxColumn.
It looks good on in the datagridview but how do I get the state of the check box?
I can currently get it using the following code:
//Following function fires when any cell is clicked within the DataGridView
//I’m only concerned with Column 1, 2 or 3 as they are the CheckBox Columns
//Each click on the Check Column will change its state – as a String
private void dvSelected_CellClick(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)
{
if (e.ColumnIndex == 1 | e.ColumnIndex == 2 | e.ColumnIndex == 3)
{
if(dvSelected.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[e.ColumnIndex].Value.ToString() == "True")
{
dvSelected.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[e.ColumnIndex].Value = "False";
}
else
{
dvSelected.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[e.ColumnIndex].Value = "True";
}
}
}
//To Test a specific Cell to see if it is checked
private void button1_Click_1(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (dvSelected.Rows[0].Cells[1].Value.ToString () == "True") // Test a Check Box cell whithin the data grid view
{
MessageBox.Show("Cell is Checked");
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("Cell is Un-Checked");
}
}
Does anybody know of a different way? Shouldn't I be able to return the cells checkbox propety?
Cheers
David
