How to search particular value in WinForms GridGrouping?

4 mins read

Search the value in combo dropdown

In the WinForms GridGrouping, you can set the current item based on the specified value by using the KeyDown event. You can identify the RowIndex by using the Find method of the DataView. By using this RowIndex, the respective row can be selected by adding the particular record into the SelectedRecords of grid.

C#

this.comboDropDown1.TextBox.KeyDown += new KeyEventHandler(TextBox_KeyDown);
void TextBox_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
    if(e.KeyData == Keys.Enter)
    {
       DataView dataView = dt.DefaultView;
       dataView.Sort = "ProductName";
       int row = dataView.Find(this.comboDropDown1.Text);
       if(row != -1)
       {
          //Removes the previous selections
          this.gridGroupingControl1.Table.SelectedRecords.Clear();
          //Adds the record to the SelectedRecords collection
          this.gridGroupingControl1.Table.SelectedRecords.Add(this.gridGroupingControl1.Table.Records[row]);
        }
    }
}

VB

AddHandler comboDropDown1.TextBox.KeyDown, AddressOf TextBox_KeyDown
Private Sub TextBox_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As KeyEventArgs)
    If e.KeyData = Keys.Enter Then
       Dim dataView As DataView = dt.DefaultView
       dataView.Sort = "ProductName"
       Dim row As Integer = dataView.Find(Me.comboDropDown1.Text)
       If row <> -1 Then
          'Removes the previous selections
          Me.gridGroupingControl1.Table.SelectedRecords.Clear()
          'Adds the record to the SelectedRecords collection
          Me.gridGroupingControl1.Table.SelectedRecords.Add(Me.gridGroupingControl1.Table.Records(row))
       End If
    End If
End Sub
