Hi Jaya,
Your Welcome..
And Good to hear your that query got resolved and thanks for posting the answer here.

Hi,

Sorry for late reply..My Problem get solved..

to get the value of the button cell clicked,i write this code:

DataGridViewButtonCell cell = (DataGridViewButtonCell)
           dataGridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[e.ColumnIndex];

string cellV = cell.Value.ToString();

Thanks..

Hi Jaya,

Have your thread got solved or not?

Thanks,
Vijay

Hi Jaya,

Your Welcome!!!
 
For which button got clicked, you can write the following code on CellMouseClick event of datagridview
if (dataGridView1.Columns[e.ColumnIndex].Name.Equals("write your column name here"))
            {
                MessageBox.Show(dataGridView1.Columns[e.ColumnIndex].Name.ToString());
            }

Thanks,
Vijay

Thanks Vijay..It really helped me..

Can you please tell how to implement click event for the buttoncell clicked. How do we know which button is clicked?

Thanks,
Jaya

Hi Jaya,

The code to create two rows with 10 button column each  dynamically is

            dataGridView1.ColumnCount = 10; // Create 10 button columns
            for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++)
            {
                DataGridViewRow row = new DataGridViewRow();
                for (int j = 0; j < 10; j++)
                {

                    row.Cells.Add(new DataGridViewButtonCell());

                }
                dataGridView1.Rows.Add(row); // this is used to add new row with 10 buttons.
            }

I hope you will get the idea.

Thanks
Vijay

Hi Vijay,

In the given code, i am creating 6 buttons instead of 10 buttons.
 
You just provide me  the code to create two rows with 10 button column each  dynamically.

Thanks,
Jaya

Hi Jaya,
What i understood is you want 10 buttons in each row (i.e. in 2 rows) rite but it depends upon the xml file?
i haven't work with xml.
but i have done somthing like this with the SQL database.

Achcha tell me the code you have provided here is showing 6 buttons  each row?

Looking forward for your reply

Thanks
Vijay

Thanks for the reply vijay.


I am getting the no. of records from xml.
The c ode you have provided is to create 10 buttons. how to add the next 10  columns in next row.
like for 20 records we need to have 2 rows with 10 button column each.


I Hope now u understand my issue.

Hi Jaya,
This is according to your first post.
You want to add 10 buttons to datagridview dynamically you can add like this
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
            {
                DataGridViewButtonColumn btnView = new DataGridViewButtonColumn();
                btnView.HeaderText = "Button" + i;
                btnView.Name = "Button" + i;
                btnView.Text = "Button" + i;
                btnView.Width = 50;
                btnView.UseColumnTextForButtonValue = true;
                dgvCustomer.Columns.Add(btnView);

            }
As per your second, you reading from xml file then also you are dividing by six then what the use of that file anyway you can add 10 buttons to each row like this..

Thanks,
Vijay

I am trying to add dynamically..l

My Code is as follows for 6 column each row:

Code is here

        private void toolStripButton7_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

            initializeDatagrid();
            // dataGridView1.Show();

            DataSet ds = new DataSet();

            dataGridView1.Show();
            ds.ReadXml("D:\\TestPdf\\Editor\\latest epuub editor\\Editor1\\Editor\\bin\\Debug" + "\\specialCh.xml");
            //DataGridViewButtonColumn bc = new DataGridViewButtonColumn[dt.Rows.Count];
            DataTable dt = ds.Tables["SpecialCharacter"];

            int count = dt.Rows.Count;
            double rw = (double)dt.Rows.Count / 6;

            double rwcount = System.Math.Ceiling(rw);
            int l = 0;

            DataGridViewButtonColumn[] bc;//= new DataGridViewButtonColumn[6];
            DataGridViewRow[] rwd = new DataGridViewRow[3];
         

            for (int i = 0; i < rwcount; i++)
            {

              
               //     dataGridView1.Rows.Add(rwd[i]);
                bc = new DataGridViewButtonColumn[6];
                for (int j = 0; j < 6; j++)
                {
                  
                    if (l > count-1)
                    {
                        break;

                    }
                      if (l <= count-1)
                         {
                            bc[j] = new DataGridViewButtonColumn();
                           
                            bc[j].Text = dt.Rows[l]["Character"].ToString();
                            bc[j].Width = 20;
                            bc[j].UseColumnTextForButtonValue = true;

                            dataGridView1.Columns.Add(bc[j]);

                      }

                        l++;
                   


                }
              
                dataGridView1.Rows.Add(bc);
             
            
            }
    

        }

Hi Jaya,
