datagrid hardcoding...

[Alen Smith]

strMyText = dgdMyGrid.Items(iRowCounter).Cells(0).Text

Currently I have hardcoded the first column as Cells(0) value, what is the
syntax to read the column by name. Hard coding like this is causing big
problem for maintenance.

..Net 1.1.

Thanks,

Smith

Add your value to your DS or View prior to binding it.

Yup... DataSet
How is your DS getting populated? Look through the calls for a .Add()

I am reading from the datagrid first column for iRowCounter.
I am missing some link here. Why you are referring to dataset here?
Thanks,

Because you are talking about ADDING to the datagrid causing problem I
though, not READING from it...

If the additional item is added properly then reading it wont be any big
deal.

Sometimes the requirements are such that I need to add the column in-between
the existing columns.

If I add like that, I need to recode all the column indexes which are right
side of the newly added column.

What is the meaning of "If the additional item is added properly then
reading it wont be any big deal." How to solve this situation? What is
"properly"

Thanks for replying all questions.
