How can I fill a datagridview from an array or a list.
I have the following line that get the like in a datagridview from a textbox and adds it to an array, and I want to fill a datagridview with these values. how can I do that.
Private Sub TextBox4_TextChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles TextBox4.TextChanged
Dim match As DataGridViewCell() = (From row As DataGridViewRow In Me.DataGridView2.Rows From cell As DataGridViewCell In row.Cells Select cell Where CStr(cell.FormattedValue).Contains(Me.TextBox4.Text)).ToArray()
DataGridView2.DataSource = match.ToList()
end sub
tried this and it didnt work...
As I understand, here you me humble example to do that. But remember that we have an array which consists of five element "Arr(5)" with some values, then add these values in a specific DGV column, so please do the appropriate modification for your exact need.
Here is the code:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub BtnFillDGVFromArray_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles BtnFillDGVFromArray.Click
Dim Arr(5) As String
' This to give the array initial values to aviod the null reference
For i = 0 To 4
Arr(i) = Nothing
Next
' Add some strings to the array
For i = 0 To 4
Arr(i) = "ArrayVar(" & i & ")"
Next
DGV.Columns.Add("Col1", "Col1")
For i = 0 To UBound(Arr) - 1
DGV.Rows.Add(Arr(i).ToString)
Next
End Sub
End Class

I’m trying to add a CheckBox programmatically to a DataGridVew cell if the cell next to it has a value of “1”. I’m trying to do this as the rows are added
I’m hoping someone can help me out with the correct code here. I understand one of the lines of code is incorrect but I’ve put it in to illustrate what I'm trying to do.
Thanks in advance.
Private Sub Controls_DGV_RowsAdded(sender As Object, e As Windows.Forms.DataGridViewRowsAddedEventArgs) Handles Controls_DGV.RowsAdded
If Controls_DGV.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells(2).Value = "1" Then
Controls_DGV.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells(1).AddCheckBox ' THIS LINE IS INCORRECT
End If
End Sub
This is the same as #miguel except for the checking the value, in this case Option Strict is On as it should be.
Public Class Form1
Private Sub dataGridView1_RowsAdded(sender As Object, e As DataGridViewRowsAddedEventArgs) _
Handles dataGridView1.RowsAdded
If CStr(dataGridView1.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells(1).Value) <> "1" Then
dataGridView1.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells(0).Value = False
dataGridView1.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells(0) = New DataGridViewTextBoxCell()
dataGridView1.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells(0).Value = ""
dataGridView1.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells(0).ReadOnly = True
End If
End Sub
Private Sub AddRowsButton_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) _
Handles AddRowsButton.Click
For index As Integer = 0 To 5
If CBool(index Mod 2) Then
dataGridView1.Rows.Add(False, "0")
Else
dataGridView1.Rows.Add(False, "1")
End If
Next
End Sub
End Class
The column number 1 that you want to display a checkbox should already be of type DataGridViewCheckBoxColumn and then if the value is not "1" you can transform the type of the cell for a DataGridViewTextBoxCell, so there is no checkbox and you can even put there some text if you want. Because you're using 3 columns, i'll try to do the same.
In your Form1_Load() you should have something like this if you are adding columns programmatically:
Dim ChkBox As New DataGridViewCheckBoxColumn
Controls_DGV.Columns.Add("TextBox1", "TextBox1")
Controls_DGV.Columns.Add(ChkBox)
Controls_DGV.Columns.Add("TextBox2", "TextBox2")
Then using your code it should be like this:
Private Sub Controls_DGV_RowsAdded(sender As Object, e As Windows.Forms.DataGridViewRowsAddedEventArgs) Handles Controls_DGV.RowsAdded
If Controls_DGV.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells(2).Value <> "1" Then
' replace the checkbox cell by textbox cell
Controls_DGV.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells(1) = New DataGridViewTextBoxCell()
Controls_DGV.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells(1).Value = "(empty or some text)"
End If
End Sub
How do i pass my 2nd selected row in datagridview to textboxt. I only know how to put the first data. How do i pass the 2nd selected to textbox?
Dim i As Integer
i = DataGridView2.SelectedRows(0).Index
Me.txtEmployeeID.Text = DataGridView2.Item(0, i).Value
you can use this code it worked for me
Dim test As String = DataGridView1.SelectedRows(0).Cells(2).Value.ToString
You need to only change the .cell(Here write the index value of the cell)
Then you can use the string value to fill up textbox
Try using the following:
Dim secondRow as integer = 0
Private Sub DataGridView2_CellContentClick(sender As Object, e As DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles DataGridView2.CellClick
'assuming that by second selected row, you mean the row after the selected row
secondRow = e.RowIndex + 1
End Sub
Private Sub RowToTextBox()
Try
For i = 0 to DataGridView2.ColumnCount - 1
txtEmployeeID.Text &= DataGridView2.Item(i, secondRow)
Next
Catch ex as Exception
MsgBox("You have selected the final row")
End Try
End Sub
I don't think Me. is needed when referring to a textbox in the same form.
Since you don't know how many rows your user will select, I think looping thought the SelectedRows collection might work. I used the Name column because that is what I happened to have in my grid. Instead of a MessageBox you could add the values to a ListBox.
Private Sub Button2_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
For Each GridRow As DataGridViewRow In DataGridView1.SelectedRows
MessageBox.Show($"Value is {GridRow.Cells("Name").Value}")
Next
End Sub
I'm creating an VB windows application. The point of the application is a simple DataGridView where I'm fetching a View from a SQL Server database.
The DataGridView is refreshed every second so I could see new data income in my GridView.
The problem is keeping focus on row after the refresh. I need the solution, where after I click a row, or a cell it keeps me on it even after the refresh.
Here is my code:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
'Refresh every 1 sec
Dim timer As New Timer()
timer.Interval = 1000
AddHandler timer.Tick, AddressOf timer_Tick
timer.Start()
'TODO: This line of code loads data into the 'XYZDataSet.view1' table. You can move, or remove it, as needed.
Me.View1TableAdapter.Fill(Me.XYZDataSet.view1)
End Sub
Private Sub DataGridView1_CellContentClick(sender As Object, e As DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.CellContentClick
End Sub
Private Sub DataGridView1_CellFormatting(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As DataGridViewCellFormattingEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.CellFormatting
For i As Integer = 0 To Me.DataGridView1.Rows.Count - 1
If Me.DataGridView1.Rows(i).Cells("DayTillDelivery").Value <= 30 Then
Me.DataGridView1.Rows(i).Cells("DayTillDelivery").Style.ForeColor = Color.Red
End If
Next
End Sub
Private Sub timer_Tick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
'Calling refresh after 1 second and updating the data
Me.DataGridView1.Refresh()
Me.View1TableAdapter.Fill(Me.XYZDataSet.view1)
End Sub
End Class
I've solved a similar problem in the past by storing the indexes of the selected cell in a variable before doing the refresh, so I'm able to restore the selection by calling DataGridView.Rows(selRow).Cells(selCol).Selected = True after the update.
Edit - Sample Code:
To later readers:Please take a look at Edit#2 where I describe a better method to re-select the previous selected cell!
Sample Code:
' Variables for remembering the indexes of the selected cell
Dim selRow As Integer
Dim selCol As Integer
' Check if there is a selected cell to prevent NullPointerException
If DataGridView1.SelectedCells().Count > 0 Then
selRow = DataGridView1.CurrentCell.RowIndex
selCol = DataGridView1.CurrentCell.ColumnIndex
End If
' Dummy "update"
' don't forget to clear any existing rows before adding the new bunch (only if you always reloading all rows)!
DataGridView1.Rows.Clear()
For index = 1 To 20
DataGridView1.Rows.Add()
Next
' Check if there are "enough" rows after the update,
' to prevent setting the selection to an rowindex greater than the Rows.Count - 1 which would
' cause an IndexOutOfBoundsException
If (DataGridView1.Rows.Count - 1) > selRow Then
' Clear selection and then reselect the cell that was selected before by index
DataGridView1.ClearSelection()
' For the next line of code, there is a better solution in Edit #2!
DataGridView1.Rows(selRow).Cells(selCol).Selected = True
End If
Please note:
This procedure requires you to add the rows in the exact same order that you have added them before the update, as only the .Index of the selected row is stored in the variable. If you readding the rows in a different order, then not the same row but the row at the same position will be selected after the refresh.
You should add check if there is a selected row at all (to prevent a NullPointerException) and if there are "enough" rows in the DataGridView after the refresh, to prevent an IndexOutOfBoundsException.
This only works if the DataGridView1.SelectionMode is to something that actually selects rows, like FullRowSelect.
Don't forget to clear any existing rows before adding new ones by updating (only if you always reloading all rows).
Edit 2 - RowHeader triangle and accidental MultiSelect
As stated in the comments below, there was an odd behavior that would lead to an accidental MultiSelect, if the user holds down the mouse button past the refresh cycle. Also, the RowHeader triangle was not set to the correct row.
After some research I found a solution to this behavior. Instead of setting the .Selected-property of a given cell to True, set the .CurrentCell-property of the DataGridView to the cell you would like to select!
In code, this means changing
DataGridView1.Rows(selRow).Cells(selCol).Selected = True
to
DataGridView1.CurrentCell = DataGridView1.Rows(selRow).Cells(selCol)
and there you go. :-)
Before Fill, store the CurrentRow values and currenCell column:
Dim currentColumnIndex As Integer = 0 ;
Dim currentValues As List(Of Object) = If(DataGridView1.CurrentRow Is Nothing, Nothing, New List(Of Object)())
If currentValues IsNot Nothing Then
For i As Integer = 0 To DataGridView1.Columns.Count - 1
currentValues.Add(DataGridView1.CurrentRow.Cells(i).Value)
Next
currentColumnIndex = DataGridView1.CurrentCell.ColumnIndex;
End If
After Fill, search the row corresponding to stored values:
Dim i As Integer = 0
While i < DataGridView1.Rows.Count AndAlso currentValues IsNot Nothing
Dim areIdentical As Boolean = True
Dim j As Integer = 0
While j < DataGridView1.Columns.Count AndAlso areIdentical
areIdentical = DataGridView1.Rows(i).Cells(j).Value = currentValues(j)
j += 1
End While
If areIdentical Then
DataGridView1.CurrentCell = DataGridView1.Rows(i).Cells(currentColumnIndex)
currentValues = Nothing
End If
i += 1
End While
Note: the "For/While" loop coding is perhaps not optimal because it results from automatic conversion from C# to vb.net.
C# fix code , next reload pattern
if (dataGridView7.SelectedCells.Count > 0)
{
//MessageBox.Show(selcell + "------"+dataGridView7.CurrentCell.ColumnIndex.ToString());
if (selcell > 0 && dataGridView7.CurrentCell.ColumnIndex==0) { }else
{
selrow = dataGridView7.CurrentCell.RowIndex;
selcell = dataGridView7.CurrentCell.ColumnIndex;
}
}
loaddataJobsall();
dataGridView7.ClearSelection();
dataGridView7.Rows[selrow].Cells[selcell].Selected = true;
I want to run a code like this, but it always jumps over the loop, so I see no line in the console.
That means that selectedColumns is empty. My assumption was that I (or the user) select a cell from a Column and then, selectedColummns are +1. But as it looks, it doesnt work. Then I tried to set proberties of selectionMode to select full columns, but then an exception is thrown:
"System.InvalidOperationException" Additional Information: the SortMode cannot be Automatic, if full Column selection is selected.
I don't know what SortMode is.
For Each col As DataGridViewColumn In datagridview2.SelectedColumns
Console.Write(datagridview2.SelectedColumns.Count)
Console.Write("1")
Next
Any Ideas how to get that the columns into selectedColumns?
Here my code that solved my problem, but I guess it is not the smartest one:
Private Sub Button2_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
Dim body As String = ""
Dim myWriter As New StreamWriter("H:\downloads\test.csv", True)
Dim list As List(Of Integer) = New List(Of Integer)
For Each cell As DataGridViewCell In datagridview2.SelectedCells
If list.Contains(cell.ColumnIndex) = False Then
list.Add(cell.ColumnIndex)
End If
Next
For i = 0 To datagridview2.Rows.Count - 1
For ix = 0 To datagridview2.Columns.Count - 1
If list.Contains(ix) Then
If datagridview2.Rows(i).Cells(ix).Value IsNot Nothing Then
body = body + datagridview2.Rows(i).Cells(ix).Value.ToString + ";"
Else
body = body + ";"
End If
End If
Next
myWriter.WriteLine(body)
body = ""
Next
myWriter.Close()
End Sub
You need to do this after the selected changed event has fired.
For example:
Private Sub Mydg_ColSelected(sender As Object, e As SelectionChangedEventArgs) Handles datagridview2.SelectionChanged
For Each col As DataGridViewColumn In datagridview2.SelectedColumns
Console.Write(datagridview2.SelectedColumns.Count)
Console.Write("1")
Next
End Sub
Or if this isn't what you are after, then try handling the ColumnHeaderMouseClick event instead. I'm not sure what technology you are using, e.g Winforms, WPF, silverlight
Using VB.Net
I want to Copy one row data to another row.
I am using checkbox in the gridview, if i clicked the checkbox and press button then selected row copy to new cell (row)
Below code is working for delete, not working for copy the rows
Code
Private Sub btncopy_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btncopy.Click
For Each m_row As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewRow In Me.grvList.Rows
If m_row.Cells("chksel").Value = True Then
Me.grvList.Rows.Add(m_row)
' Me.grvList.Rows.Remove(m_row)
End If
Next
End Sub
The above code is showing error as "Row provided already belongs to a DataGridView control."
What wrong with my code.
Need VB.Net Code Help
You can't add exactly the same row again. You will need to create a new row and populate it with the values from the row you are duplicating instead, then add the new row to the grvList.Rows
I am not sure what sorts of values you have in each cell, but as long as they are value types something like the following should work:
For Each m_row As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewRow In Me.grvList.Rows
If m_row.Cells("chksel").Value = True Then
'Create new row to hold duplicated values
Dim NewRow As DataRow = grvList.NewRow()
'loop thru existing rows to copy values
For i As Integer = 0 To m_row.Cells.Count - 1
NewRow(i) = m_row.Cells(i).Value
Next
'Add newly create row to table
Me.grvList.Rows.Add(NewRow)
' Me.grvList.Rows.Remove(m_row)
End If
Next
Keep in mind that if the items in any of the cells are reference types that you will still be referencing the same item, instead of creating a copy of the item. Much as you were doing by simply calling add on the same row you located.
Sorry, I missed that the rows were DataGridView rows, rather than a datatable that was bound... this should do the trick in that case:
For Each m_row As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewRow In Me.grvList.Rows
If m_row.Cells("chksel").Value = True Then
'Create new row to hold duplicated values
Dim NewRow As DataGridViewRow = m_row.Clone
'Add newly create row to table
Me.grvLIst.Rows.Add(NewRow)
End If
Next
'To copy Row
Private Sub CopyButton_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles CopyButton.Click
CopyRowIndex = DGV1.CurrentRow.Index
End Sub
'To Paste Row
Private Sub PasteButton_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles PasteButton.Click
PasteRowIndex = DGV1.CurrentRow.Index
For index As Int32 = 0 To DGV1.ColumnCount - 1
DGV1.Rows(CInt(PasteRowIndex)).Cells(index).Value = DGV1.Rows(CInt(CopyRowIndex)).Cells(index).Value
Next
End Sub
'To Duplicate Rows
Private Sub DuplicateButton_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles DuplicateButton.Click
CopyRowIndex = DGV1.CurrentRow.Index
DGV1.Rows.Add()
DuplicateRowIndex = DGV1.Rows.Count - 1
For index As Int32 = 0 To DGV1.ColumnCount - 1
DGV1.Rows(CInt(DuplicateRowIndex)).Cells(index).Value = DGV1.Rows(CInt(CopyRowIndex)).Cells(index).Value
Next
End Sub
