Select cell from column and row index

[Evelyn]

I would like to select a specific cell by giving the column and the row index. For exemple (Image): 

I would like to select the cell where the column index is 2 and the row index is 2 (It will select the cell where "Portugal" is written).

It should be something like myGrid.SelectCell(Columns[2], Rows[2]);

Is there any way of doing this?

Thank you,
Evelyn

Hello Evelyn,

I would suggest you to check the Programmatic Selection help article for a reference.

I checked the article but I couldn't understand something:

GridViewCellInfo cellToSelect = new GridViewCellInfo(item, column, this.radGridView);
This constructors expect 3 parameters: an object, GridViewColumn, GridViewDataControl.

To get the second parameter (GridViewColumn), I code like this: Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridViewColumn column = this.Columns[0];. It gets the first column of my grid. And the third paremeter, I reference the radgrid itself. But I can't understand what is this object paramenter that is required.. Can you explain to me?

Thank you,
Evelyn

Hi Evelyn,

This is the business object behind (the item) behind the row. You want to select a cell using a code similar to the following one:

SelectCell(Columns[2], Rows[2]);

using the GridViewCellInfo you can use very similar code to "find" the needed cell. You can use directly GridView's Items collection like so:

cellToSelect = new GridViewCellInfo(this.clubsGrid.Items[0], this.clubsGrid.Columns[1], this.clubsGrid);

 
Then you need to add this cell in GridView's SelectedCells collection.
