How can I access multi selected row cell contents after datagridview sort?

Tags: microsoft, visual studio 2005, visual basic
Visual Studio 2005 -VB windows forms DataGridView

After the user clicks on a column header and sorts the rows in my DataGridView named dg_items , they can select multiple rows.
I need to get the key data from a cell in these selected rows so I can update the database.
The row indexes are scrambled now and  mousedown event returns the rowindex of the rows as they were before the sort.

How can I get at the cell data in these selected rows after the sort?
