double click datagridview row header to show edit or detail form in VS 2005

Hi,
Thanks for the response.
I'm just learning so I have a problem that maybe you can help.
Maybe more of a Step by Step, If you would.

My info:
Dataset - "MonarchSQL"
Form - "frmUpgradesList"
Grid - "TblUpgradesDataGridView"
PrimaryKey - "UpgradesKey"

Edit Form - "frmUpgrades"

Your modified Code: (Check my input please)
Private Sub TblUpgradesDataGridView_MouseDoubleClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles TblUpgradesDataGridView.MouseDoubleClick
        Dim I As Int32

        I = e.RowIndex
(Error-'RowIndex' is not a memberof 'System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs'.)
       
 Dim frmUpgrades As New Form
        Dim Textbox1 As New TextBox
        frmUpgrades.Controls.Add(Textbox1)
        frmUpgrades.Show()
        ' to retrive data, for example u can proced in this way
        Textbox1.Text = Me.TblUpgradesDataGridView.CurrentCell.Value
        'or the best way is grabe the the recorde nubmer for the I= e.rowindex and read the data from the database to show it in edit form
    End Sub

I am using VB 2005. u don't get "e.rowindex" in VB 2003

I don't understand, I am using VB 2005!

Your Code:
 I = e.RowIndex

I am getting the error message:
"Error-'RowIndex' is not a memberof 'System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs'."

Hi

U are writting your code in TblUpgradesDataGridView_MouseDoubleClick Event

but u have to wite this code in DataGridView1_RowHeaderMouseDoubleClick Event

You are so right... Pardon me.

 Would you please show the code for this:

>>'or the best way is grabe the the recorde nubmer for the I= e.rowindex and read the data from the database to show it in edit form.

Thanks

Hi

As u can read each and every cell of the double Clicked row Header, u can get the records ID or Index key to find the record in the database. For example CustomerID. When ever u get the customerID u can now search the customer table using the CustomerID to find the respective record and then show it in your edit form.

Hi NomanBD,

Here is what I am looking for:

Form A = Datagridview
Form B = Parent/Child w/ Parent Detail and Datagridview Child.

I want to be able to click on the RowHeader of Form A and show the selected record in Form B.

I have seen it done using a Datagrid instead of a Datagridview using the "MouseDown" event and HitTestInfo.

I think you are trying to show me another type of feature.

Hi
You are right. But the thing is u doesn’t need HitTestInfo approach as we have direct event for getting the mouse click or mouse double click event of a specific row. It is much easier and safer to use those advance events to track down your desire row and corresponding data.

Thanks
Noman
