DevExpress GridControl (How do you get the datarow?)

[DeltaWolf7]

Hi,

I have just found out about the DevExpress XtraGrid control, thanks to the wonderful review on this site.
I have been playing now for a few hours and I have managed to fill the gird quite easy, but I cant get the datarow that I have selected.

How do you get a datarow from a GridControl?


Thanks

You want to work with the "View" of your Grid, every grid has at least one View. Then you can use the available methods and the current "rowhandle" and work from there. Look at their samples, of which they include many.

Oh god, many thanks. I can't believe I missed those tutorials. Doh!

I came up with this as a test and it works perfectly.

[SIZE=2][COLOR=#0000ff]
Dim[/COLOR][/SIZE][SIZE=2] row [/SIZE][SIZE=2][COLOR=#0000ff]As[/COLOR][/SIZE][SIZE=2] System.Data.DataRow = GridView1.GetDataRow(GridView1.FocusedRowHandle)
MsgBox(row.Item(1))
[/SIZE]

Thanks
