Respected Sir,

I am using Datagridview in my project..in which i have added columns by code.
in those columns one column is DataGridViewButtonColumn

Dim colbtnUpdate As New DataGridViewButtonColumn
With colbtnUpdate
    .Name = "Edit"
    .HeaderText = "Edit"
    .Text = "Edit"
    .UseColumnTextForButtonValue = True
    .Width = 50
End With

DGV.Columns.Add(colbtnUpdate)

at runtime when i do click on that "Edit" button then that Button text should be change to "Update".
and it should be changed to only that selected row and remaining button's text property should remains same as "Edit".

I have tried ..but not working..
Please help me..
Thank you..

Hi.
Just handle the DataGridView_CellContentClick event:
And insert code as this:

VB

Private Sub DataGridView1_CellContentClick(sender As Object, e As DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.CellContentClick

'Check the clicked column is the pretended one
If DataGridView1.Columns(e.ColumnIndex).Name = "Edit" Then
   Dim cel As DataGridViewButtonCell
'retrieve clicked cell
   cel = CType(DataGridView1.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells(e.ColumnIndex), DataGridViewButtonCell)
'change value property
   cel.Value = "Update"
End If

End Sub

I tested and it work
