This post is continuation to the post which was posted by StatiX on Oct 23rd, 2007 regarding "Get The Selected row in DatagridView". Addition to this post i have a question.

The answer was given by manoshailu as follows:

Private Sub DataGridView1_CellClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.CellClick
Dim i, j As Integer
i = DataGridView1.CurrentRow.Index
TextBox1.Text = DataGridView1.Item(0, i).Value
TextBox2.Text = DataGridView1.Item(1, i).Value
TextBox3.Text = DataGridView1.Item(2, i).Value
TextBox4.Text = DataGridView1.Item(3, i).Value
End Sub

This answer solved my problem but CANY ANYONE (manoshailu) TELL ME HOW TO ADD SIMILAR CODE FOR "Checkbox"? . I have check box in my form which returns a value "True" and "False" in SQL Database. When i select cell of datagrid the check box doesnt checks in as well as checks out accordingly with the value of datagrid.

My code are as follows:

Private Sub grvDesignationList_CellClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles grvDesignationList.CellClick
        Dim i As Integer
        i = grvDesignationList.CurrentRow.Index
        txtDesignationID.Text = grvDesignationList.Item(0, i).Value
        txtDesignationName.Text = grvDesignationList.Item(1, i).Value
        txtDesShortName.Text = grvDesignationList.Item(2, i).Value
        txtDesDescription.Text = grvDesignationList.Item(3, i).Value
        desDefaultCheckbox.CheckState = grvDesignationList.Item(4, i).Value
    End Sub

My Code above seems to be not working.
Please HELP!

HI Everyone,

I have a form with datagrid. When i click the rows of data grid i can fill all the values in form controls except checkbox. My check box checked state seems to be not changing when i click on rows of the datagrid. I have a column in datagrid which returns the value "True and False" in database.

So can anyone tell me how to?

my Code are as follows:

Private Sub grvDesignationList_CellClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles grvDesignationList.CellClick
        Dim i As Integer
        i = grvDesignationList.CurrentRow.Index
        txtDesignationID.Text = grvDesignationList.Item(0, i).Value
        txtDesignationName.Text = grvDesignationList.Item(1, i).Value
        txtDesShortName.Text = grvDesignationList.Item(2, i).Value
        txtDesDescription.Text = grvDesignationList.Item(3, i).Value
        desDefaultCheckbox.CheckState = grvDesignationList.Item(4, i).Value

    End Sub

        txtDesDescription.Text = grvDesignationList.Item(3, i).Value
        desDefaultCheckbox.CheckState = grvDesignationList.Item(4, i).Value

    End Sub

You can do this using e.Rows.FindControl("checkboxid"). store it as checkbox and change the check status to checked. After that u can use it with checkbox properties.

Use Checked property.

desDefaultCheckbox.Checked= grvDesignationList.Item(4, i).Value
