Storing Celvalues from first row in Array

[feurich]

Hi there,

 

I need to store all the values of the first row of a datagridview in to an array.

I have tried a lot but havent managed to do this.

 

Can someone help me on the way.

 

Thanks,

I have this....!! :confused:

 

int i = 0;
           string[] cellValues = null;
           // Only take the first row for the search values 

           foreach (DataGridViewCell dataCell in DataGridView1.SelectedRows[0].Cells)
           {
               cellValues[i] = dataCell.Value.ToString();
               i++;
           }

You would need to make the array big enough to hold each item. Something like

 

string[] cellValues = new string[DataGridView1.SelectedRows[0].Cells.Count]

 

that is probably a bit wrong as I don't have VS handy to test it.

The problem here is that i get an error on the SelectedRows[0].Cells.Count part of the statement.

It says: System.ArgumentoutOfRangeException in the for loop.

Actual value was null. But I am in the grid and there are 3 cells filled with data in the first row...

Hi There,

 

It's not the DataGridView1.SelectedRows[0] property that was needed but the DataGridView1.Rows[0].Cells.Count.

 

That solved this problem on the the next one.

 

Thanks PlausiblyDamp for showing the way.. :)

string[] cellValues = new string[DataGridView1.Rows[0].Cells.Count];
for (int i = 0; i < this.DataGridView1.Rows[0].Cells.Count; i++)
  {
       cellValues[i] = DataGridView1.Rows[0].Cells[i].Value.ToString();
   }
