DataGrid.Item (DataGridCell)

Gets or sets the value of a specified DataGridCell.

[C#] In C#, this member is the indexer for the DataGrid class.

[Visual Basic]
Overloads Public Default Property Item( _
   ByVal cell As DataGridCell _
) As Object
[C#]
public object this[
   DataGridCell cell
] {get; set;}
[C++]
public: __property Object* get_Item(
   DataGridCell cell
);
public: __property void set_Item(
   DataGridCell cell,
   Object*
);
[JScript]
returnValue = DataGridObject.Item(cell);
DataGridObject.Item(cell) = returnValue;
-or-
returnValue = DataGridObject(cell);
DataGridObject(cell) = returnValue;

[JScript] In JScript, you can use the default indexed properties defined by a type, but you cannot explicitly define your own. However, specifying the expando attribute on a class automatically provides a default indexed Item property whose type is Object and whose index type is String.

Arguments [JScript]

cell
A DataGridCell that represents a cell in the grid.

Parameters [Visual Basic, C#, C++]

cell
A DataGridCell that represents a cell in the grid.

Remarks

Setting this property changes the position of the DataView to the specified row.

Example [Visual Basic]

The following example sets and gets the value of a cell by declaring a DataGridCell variable, setting its RowNumber and ColumnNumber values, then first changing, then returning, the value of the given cell.

[Visual Basic]

Private Sub SetCellValue()
   Dim myCell As DataGridCell
   ' Use an arbitrary cell.
   myCell.RowNumber = 0
   myCell.ColumnNumber = 0
   ' Change the cell's value using the CurrentCell
   DataGrid1(myCell)= "New Value"
End Sub

Private Sub GetCellValue()
   Dim myCell = DataGridCell
   ' Use an arbitrary cell.
   myCell.RowNumber = 0
   myCell.ColumnNumber = 0
   Console.WriteLine(DataGrid1(myCell))
End Sub
