Gridview retrieve identity in new window

[dbernett]

Brand new to winforms GridView.  First Day. Been using ASP.NET Gridview for years.

Easy question I hope. 

How do you "double click" on a row, open a new window, pass Identity ID to... so I can retreive information details?

private void radGridView1_DoubleClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            DetailsForm form = new DetailsForm();
            form.Show();
        }


Thank you.

Hello David,

Thank you for writing.

In winforms, you should pass the desired values as parameter of the form constructor or set it to form's property. I recommend creating the DetailsForm in the following manner: 

public partial class DetailsForm : Form
{
    private int id;

    public DetailsForm()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
    }

    public DetailsForm(int id)
        : this()
    {
        this.id = id;
    }
}

Then you can handle the DoubleClick event in the following way:

void radGridView1_DoubleClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    int id = Convert.ToInt32(this.radGridView1.CurrentRow.Cells["ID"].Value);
    DetailsForm form = new DetailsForm(id);
    form.ShowDialog();
}

I hope this helps.
