DataGrid get selected rows' column values

Question

I\'m trying to get the values of each column of a selected row in a DataGrid. This is what I have:

private void dataGrid1_CellEditEnding(object sender, DataG         


        

Answer 1

UPDATED

To get the selected rows try:

IList rows = dg.SelectedItems;

You should then be able to get to the column value from a row item.

OR

DataRowView row = (DataRowView)dg.SelectedItems[0];

Then:

row["ColumnName"];

Answer 2

Solution based on Tonys answer:

        DataGrid dg = sender as DataGrid;
        User row = (User)dg.SelectedItems[0];
        Console.WriteLine(row.UserID);

Answer 3

I used a similar way to solve this problem using the animescm sugestion, indeed we can obtain the specific cells values from a group of selected cells using an auxiliar list:

private void dataGridCase_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectedCellsChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        foreach (var item in e.AddedCells)
        {
            var col = item.Column as DataGridColumn;
            var fc = col.GetCellContent(item.Item);
            lstTxns.Items.Add((fc as TextBlock).Text);
        }
    }

Answer 4

I did something similar but I use binding to get the selected item :

<DataGrid Grid.Row="1" AutoGenerateColumns="False" Name="dataGrid"
          IsReadOnly="True" SelectionMode="Single"
          ItemsSource="{Binding ObservableContactList}" 
          SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedContact}">
  <DataGrid.Columns>
    <DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Path=Name}" Header="Name"/>
    <DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Path=FamilyName}" Header="FamilyName"/>
    <DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Path=Age}" Header="Age"/>
    <DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Path=Relation}" Header="Relation"/>
    <DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Path=Phone.Display}" Header="Phone"/>
    <DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Path=Address.Display}" Header="Addr"/>
    <DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Path=Mail}" Header="E-mail"/>
  </DataGrid.Columns>
</DataGrid>

So I can access my SelectedContact.Name in my ViewModel.

After hours of finding ways on how to get the data from the row selected on a WPF DataGrid Control, as I was using MongoDB. I found this post and used Tony's answer. I revised the code to be relevant to my project. Maybe someone can use this to get an idea.

private void selectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        facultyData row = (facultyData)facultyDataGrid.SelectedItem;
        facultyID_Textbox.Text = row.facultyID;
        lastName_TextBox.Text = row.lastName;
        firstName_TextBox.Text = row.firstName;
        middleName_TextBox.Text = row.middleName;
        age_TextBox.Text = row.age.ToString();
    }

}

class facultyData
{
    public ObjectId _id { get; set; }
    public string facultyID { get; set; }
    public string acadYear { get; set; }
    public string program { get; set; }   
}

Answer 6

An easy way that works:

private void dataGrid_SelectedCellsChanged(object sender, SelectedCellsChangedEventArgs e)
{
    foreach (var item in e.AddedCells)
    {
        var col = item.Column as DataGridColumn;
        var fc = col.GetCellContent(item.Item);

        if (fc is CheckBox)
        {
            Debug.WriteLine("Values" + (fc as CheckBox).IsChecked);
        }
        else if(fc is TextBlock)
        {
            Debug.WriteLine("Values" + (fc as TextBlock).Text);
        }
        //// Like this for all available types of cells
    }
}
