Selection basics (GridControl)

[ian bradley]

I find the way the selection code works on the GridControl confusing. It feels overly complex to me, which I think is because I can't achieve very simple operations easily. I don't understand where GridRangeInfo objects come from that represent the range I want to select.

So my question has two parts.

1) How do you select a single cell, and how do you select a whole row?

2) Can you sum up how GridRangeInfo is supposed to work in a paragraph or so? Just to give me a idea of where to look for stuff in the future.

Thanks
Ian

Hi Ian ,

Thank you for your interest in Syncfusion Products.

Query 1:

To selec a cell in a grid, please make use of "this.gridcontrol.CurrenCell.MoveTo()" and to select a entire row, please refer the following code snippet.

<code>

GridRangeInfo activeRange = gridControl1.Selections.Ranges.ActiveRange;

</code>

Query 2:

Grid range is a ectanle box, we can specify the range for the following.

1. single cell

2. group of cells(Rectangle)

3. row

4.column

Please refer the following link:

Cool, I'll add to that as well:

To select a specific cell, you can do CurrentCell.MoveTo(r,c)
