Select Multiple Rows in Ultragrid

Hi

 I have a grid which I need to select multiple rows and process the contents of each rows cells

I have tried looping through the rows in the grid and checking the grid.Rows(i).Activated = true

but this only returns the first Active row in the grid.

Is there another property which distinguishes selected rows from non selected rows ??

Is there a difference between active and selected rows

Thanks

Each row has a property named "Selected".

Active row is the row that has the input focus, hence there is only one active row. Selected row is a row that was selected by the user or by code and there could be more than one.

If you want to get all selected rows use grid.Selected.Rows

If you want to select all rows, don't go over them and set Selected = true because this can be very slow, but use grid.Selected.Rows.AddRange(grid.Rows)

Thanks for the help

I just implemented the suggestion for selected rows but when I select several rows the grid.Selected.Rows returns zero rows

Is there some other property that needs to be set on the grids to allow multiple row selection

 Thanks

If you are seeing selected rows in the grid and grid.Selected.Rows returns no rows, then something is wrong and the rows are not really selected. Are you sure you are looking at the right grid control? Are you sure the rows are actually selected? How are you selecting them? 

 

I am using an Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.UltraGrid

To select the rows I am simply clicking on a row and then using the shift key and the direction arrows to highlight the rows below that row,

I am looking at the correct grid and using the following code

 

Dim row As Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.UltraGridRow

For Each row In grdSage.Selected.Rows

sSQL =

"Delete from OverallSageLink where Bankref = '" & grdSage.ActiveRow.Cells(1).Value…………….

 

The statement grdSage.Selected.Rows is at zero no matter what I select

 

Hi,

I don't see how that could possibly happen. If it is happening, then it sounds like a very serious bug. But I have not heard any other reports of this. 

Can you duplicate this in a small sample project? 

I'm seeing this same issue in an ultragrid.

I figured out that my problem had to do with setting the RowSelectors property to false like so:
grdCurrent.DisplayLayout.Override.RowSelectors = Infragistics.Win.DefaultableBoolean.False;

Holding the shift key down and clicking the mouse selected multiple cells but it does not select multiple rows. When I set the above property to  Infragistics.Win.DefaultableBoolean.True, the row selector column is displayed and holding down the shift key and clicking the mmouse in the row selectors column will select multiple rows. In summary, setting the RowSelectors property to true and using the row selector column to select multiple rows solved my problem.

Hi,

I have seen the same thing. We have a made a derived grid from UltraWinGrid 7.3 and when we reload the grid and there is a selected row all the rows after the datasource has been reloaded appears to be selected but the selected.Rows property is empty.

Hello,

I have the same Issue by selecting rows from an UltraGrid.

I tried to implement this example on the following site: How to Drag and Drop Rows in a Grid

If the DragDrop event is fired, the program get no selected rows. The object of type SelectedRowsCollection has zero values.

I had opened the UltraWinGrid Designer from the
grid's smart tag and selected the "Feature Picker" and used the
"Selection" node.

I use VS2008 and Infragistic 9.2. I spent much time get the issue solved, but I see no solution.

May be you have set the (UltraGrid Object).DisplayLayout.Override.SelectTypeRow property to select single row only.

Have a look at the options this provides.

I got my grid to do multiple selection by setting the property to the following value : Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.SelectType.ExtendedAutoDrag

You need to set the SelectTypeRowDefault property before you select the rows.

grid.DisplayLayout.SelectTypeRowDefault =

SelectType.Extended;

grid.DisplayLayout.Rows[0].Selected = true;

grid.DisplayLayout.Rows[1].Selected = true;

I wanted to get the rows that are selected and edit the cells only in grid but not entrie grid. Please help me. I am not able to get selected rows, its is displaying is 0

if

(BaseGrid.ActiveRow != null)

            {    

foreach(UltraGridRow row in BaseGrid.Rows)

               {

                  

if (row.Selected)

                   {

                       row.Activation =

Activation.AllowEdit;

                   }

　

               }

            }

Hello,

I am not sure why are you doing this, because I do not know your scenario but it should work. Could you please try to attach if possible a small sample project reproducing the above mentioned issue, I will be happy to take a look at it.
