Hiding row in datagridview

Question

0.00/5 (No votes)

See more:

I want to hide the row if it has a certain word in it ....

foreach (DataGridViewRow dr in CustOrdersDGV.Rows)
{
    if (dr.Cells[6].Value.ToString() == "hot")
    {
        dr.Visible = false;
    }
}

But all of the cells show regardless

What I have tried:

<pre>                foreach (DataGridViewRow dr in CustOrdersDGV.Rows)
                {
                    if (dr.Cells.Count > 6)  // validate the index

                    if (dr.Rows[6].Value.ToString() == "hot")
                    {
                        dr.Visible = false;
                    }
                }

Solution 1

You seem to investigate rows instead of cells in the if statement. Also you expect to the cell value to be exactly "hot", not just contain it. Try using

C#

if (dr.Cells[6].Value.ToString().ToLower().Contains("hot"))
{
   dr.Visible = false;
}
