SelectionChanged is fired whenever the selection is changed at all. So, what you can do, is add an event handler for SelectionChanged. In this handler, check to see how many rows that are selected:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. if(dataGridView1.SelectedRows.Count > 1)
  2. {
  3.   //code for multiple selected cells
  4. }
  5. else
  6. {
  7.   //code for 1 or 0 selected cells
  8. }
  9.

This could have been solved very easily if you had bothered to do any work looking for it.
Try actually LOOKING at your object, or even at MSDN
