Hi everyone!

Part of my project is to give the user an option to clone/duplicate a row to the bottom "newrow" incase they want to make 1 or 2 cell edits. This is what I have so far in accomplishing this mission.

try
            {
                highlightBottomRow();
                setDuplicateRowValues();
                setNewRowCellValues();
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
            }

setDuplicateRowValues is supposed to copy the selected row cells to a variable (1 variable per cell). setNewRowCellValues is supposed to set the values of the cells in the newrow(editing row) the values of what the variables contain. Is there a more efficient way to do this (i.e. with the Clone method)? The first column is an ID column and we want to increment each new addition (no matter if it's a duplicated row or a row created brand new and keep the first column read-only). I have 25 columns and want this to be as performance efficient as possible.

Thanks everyone!
