Hello,

Does anybody know how to remove a row from the data grid control? I can't figure it out.

Thanks.

In the DataGrid web control, there is a collection of "Items" from which you could add or remove items. However it seems that there isn't such a beast on the windows forms DataGrid. It looks as though you need to remove the row/item from your datasource before you bind the grid to it.

Ok, say you want to remove a row from the data source. How can you figure out which row to delete, when a row is clicked on? Is there a way to get the ID parameter from the data grid, or do you base it off of the index number?

(Again, disclaiming that my knowledge is based only on working with the webcontrol datagrid...)

The datagrid control contains an event for selecting, editing, updating, deleting rows. The signature for that event has an event arg object that contains an Item object which corresponds to the datagrid row item that you are performing the operation on. You can get the index of that item (...Item.ItemIndex), but in most cases you just care about what's actually IN the item (i.e. the cells/columns of the datagrid). With that, you can extract the particular bits of data you need to perform the designated operation.
