new record and selection

I'm adding new record in DataTable by my program - not internally in the grid. This table is as DataSource for a Grid. How can I find index of newly added row and select this record in a Grid? Thank you

If you have grid.EnableAddNew = false, then teh last row will be grid.model.RowCount. So, you could try: grid.CurrentCell.MoveTo(grid.model.RowCount, 1); If this does not work, then also call grid.Focus() and set grid.ForceCurrentCellMoveTo = true; to see if that handles it. If you have EnableAddNew = true, then the row should be one less than the RowCount.

it doesn't work with sorting in my grid > If you have grid.EnableAddNew = false, then teh last row will be grid.model.RowCount.

If you are sorting, then you will have to find the new row in the sorted grid. If your grid displays a primary key column, you can use that key and the grid's support for Find to locate the row. If you do not have a primary key, then you could still use this method, but the located row may not be the new one. Attached is a lttle sample. Another way you can do this that will work for any IBindingList DataSource whether or not there is a primary key, is to use the IBindingList.ListChanged event. In the sample, if you replace the button_click code and add a ListChanged handler as below, that will also position the current cell.

private void cm_ListChanged(object sender, ListChangedEventArgs e)
{
	if(e.ListChangedType == ListChangedType.ItemAdded)
	{
		Console.WriteLine(e.NewIndex);
		this.gridDataBoundGrid1.Focus();
		this.gridDataBoundGrid1.CurrentCell.MoveTo(e.NewIndex+1,1);  
}

private void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
	CurrencyManager cm = (CurrencyManager)this.BindingContext[dt];
	((IBindingList)cm.List).ListChanged += new ListChangedEventHandler(cm_ListChanged);

	DataRow dr = dt.NewRow();
	dt.Rows.Add(dr);

	((IBindingList)cm.List).ListChanged -= new ListChangedEventHandler(cm_ListChanged);
}

works perfectly, thank you
