DataGrid Woes

[John Smith]

Hello all:

What is the best way to get a reference to an item selected in a data
grid? What I am trying to do is have it so a user can select from a
list in a data grid of all our employees and then click a button to
update that employees details. What is the best way to accomplish this
so that you can then bind this data to the next form?

Thanks,

Hello John,

You should utilize CurrencyManager to get the data record corresponding to
the current position in the DataGrid.

CurrencyManager cm =
(CurrencyManage r)this.BindingC ontext[dataGrid.DataSo urce,
dataGrid.DataMe mber];
DataRowView currentRow = (DataRowView)cm .Current;

What does it mean if I get the following errow upon executing the code:

Cannot create child list for TableName.
