Hi All,

In my Form1 i have
Datagridview1,Contextmenustrip1.

when i click on any cell and on Rightclick, i am showing Contextmenustrip1.

My problem is i have 2 rows With 5 Columns in Datagridview1,
suppose if i select Datagridview1.Rows[0].cell[0]
and i right click on Datagridview1.Rows[1].cells[4],

means selected Cell is different and Right Clicked cell is different.

i don't want to show contextmenustrip1 if both selected and rightclicked cell's are different.

if both are same want to show contextmenustrip1.

Any idea or suggestion would be really appreciated.

Regards,
Pawan.

the first thing you need to do is making sure that what ever you right clicked on is the selected cell; you can do this by handling "CellMouseDown" event on the gridview and select the cell in programmatic fashion like

datagridview1[e.columnindex,e.rowindex].selected=true;

and hence there won't even be a need for you to validate if the cell right clicked on and the selected one are different cells.

I hope that helped
good luck
