Hello,

How do you search a datagridview for given column values?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance

1) If the control is bound to an underlying DataTable or DataSet, it would be better to search there
rather than search the control.

2) If unbound, you would have to iterate through all the rows looking for the specified column value
using somthing like this:

If Me.MainGridView.Rows(Index as Integer).Cells(ColumnName as String).Value = MyValue Then

End If

Gene,

AFAIK can a DataGridView not be used unbound althouhg it should be easier
than with the DataGrid to bind it to another object.

I would have written your first sentence if you had not done it already.

I'm not sure what you are trying to say in the above sentence. Are you asking how the DataGridView
is used with unbound data?

Gene,

In my idea that is impossible yes, therefore maybe you can show it with a
sample.
