2005 Studio headache

[Echo]

Hi all. Sorry about the crude headline but this problem is really
giving me a headache. See I am currently deloping an app in Visual
Studios 2005 C# Lanuage and the thing is like this: I have a
DataGridView on my form. In this DataGridView is a
DataGridViewChe ckBoxColumn and I want to get the value (either true or
false) as I click on the cell(meaning when I change the checked box
unchecked or the other way around) Now like a regular checkbox I want
to use something like Checked so that I can also change the column
programmaticall y. But there isn't any events or something like that.
The DataGridView is not databound to my database. The connections and
commands are handled seperately in another program. All I want is a
messagebox to show me after I clicked on the DataGridCheckBo xColumn to
show me either checked(true) or unchecked(false )

Please can anybody help me. I gratly appreciate any kind of help on
this.

Thanks
Echo

Have you looked at the CellClick event?

[smilly]

Did you check out the current cell value

like this

I hope this helps you out :-)

private void dgrd_RowValidat ing(object sender,
DataGridViewCel lCancelEventArg s e)
{

if (
dgrd.CurrentRow .Cells[0].Value == null
||

String.IsNullOr Empty(dgrd.Curr entRow.Cells[0].Value.ToString ())
)
{
bool b=Convert.ToBoo lean(dgrd.Curre ntRow.Cells[0].Value);
}
}

Hi me again. Thanks for the replies but actually none of them actually
work. It brings me with a messagebox that shows 'true' all the time
until I press Enter key twice then it changes to false. Here is a
sample code for a standard checkbox. Is there a way on how I can use it
with that column?

eg. MessageBox.Show (checkBox1.Chec ked.ToString()) ;

See I am looking for a code snippet but I can't find it for the
DataGridViewChe ckBoxColumn that can also use the Checked.ToStrin g()
function. Is there another way around?
Thanks for the replies and help.
