I am trying to get a cell value from the selected item of a silverlight datagrid. In the attached code I can get to the properties of the cell and change its forecolor, but
Thanks VooDooChild, see below for my solution using the textblock to get at value.
private void FindDetails_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
DataGrid dataGrid = sender as DataGrid;
int selectedIndex = dataGrid.SelectedIndex;
if (selectedIndex > -1)
{
FindResult findResult = (FindResult)FindDetailsDataGrid.SelectedItem;
DataGridColumn column = dataGrid.Columns[0];
FrameworkElement fe = column.GetCellContent(dataGrid.SelectedItem);
FrameworkElement result = GetParent(fe, typeof(DataGridCell));
if (result != null)
{
DataGridCell cell = (DataGridCell)result;
//changes the forecolor
cell.Foreground = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Blue);
//how to get cell value?
TextBlock block = fe as TextBlock;
if (block != null)
{
string cellText = block.Text;
MessageBox.Show(cellText);
}
}
}
}
