Capture value in datagrid

[Dave Petersen]

In my C# winforms datagrid, how do I get the value of the selected cell? In
asp.net I can use:

dataGrid1.SelectedIndex

but SelectedIndex is not available in windows forms apps. HitTestInfo will
return the cell number and row number, but I need to get the actual contents
of the cell.

Thanks,
Dave

The DataGrid's CurrentCell property returns the selected DataGridCell.

Use the Item property (which is the indexer in C#) to retrieve the value of
any cell.
Coordinates of the currently selected cell can indeed be obtained as
suggested by AirPete.
