datagrid selected item

[rodchar]

hey all,

when you first load a page with a datagrid item on it, is the first record
always selected by default? if so, is there a way to have it where nothing is
selected by default?

thanks,
rodchar

Hi Rodchar,

Actually, nothing can be automatically selected in web datagrid. If you want
to select any item, you have to use EditCommandColumn/CommandColumn or other
means, such as checkbox in TemplateColumn.

Hi,

no, it shouldn't be selected by default. SelectedIndex is -1 unless you
manually set it, or do a selection on the grid.

Hi

you can choose the selected record
dataGrid1.CurrentRowIndex = 0;
