how to select a RadGridView.ChildRows row that contains a cell with a certain value

[fabrizio]

Hi everyone
I have to select a row in a winform radGridView after I made an update on that row in a sorted column and use the value of a cell in an ID column (column 0) as an index.
Can anyone please give me some help?
thanks a lot

Hello, Fabrizio,     

In order to select a specific row, you can iterate the rows in RadGridView, check the respective cell's value that you are looking for and set the GridViewRowInfo.IsSelected property to true:

private void radButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    foreach (GridViewRowInfo r in this.radGridView1.ChildRows)
    {
        if ((int)r.Cells["ProductID"].Value == 21)
        {
            r.IsSelected = true;
            this.radGridView1.TableElement.ScrollToRow(r);
        }
    }
}

The following help article are quite useful about the child rows in RadGridView and selecting rows programmatically:

Note that most of the forum threads are reviewed by Telerik representatives and sometimes we address the questions asked by our customers in the forums as well. However, a post in the forum doesn't guarantee you a response from the Telerik support team. Moreover, threads are handled according to license and time of posting, so if it is an urgent problem, we suggest you use a support ticket, which would be handled before a forum thread. Thank you for your understanding.
