datagrid event

[Guest]

hey all,

i have a win form that has a datagrid on it and i was wondering if i can use
a double-click event to pull up the next form to show details?

thanks,

You can. You override the doubleclick event for the datagrid. You then
need to do DataGrid.HitTest() to make sure it is in a cell. If it is in a
cell then use the currentrowindex to find out what row you need to go into
detail on. Hope that helps.

Of course you can. Except you cannot trap a double-click but rather a single
click:

Private Sub DataGrid1_MouseUp(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles DataGrid1.MouseUp
If e.Button = MouseButtons.Left Then
'Open your form!
End If
End Sub

Hope it helps.
