public:
 System::Drawing::Rectangle GetCellBounds(int row, int col);
public System.Drawing.Rectangle GetCellBounds (int row, int col);
member this.GetCellBounds : int * int -> System.Drawing.Rectangle
Public Function GetCellBounds (row As Integer, col As Integer) As Rectangle

Parameters

row
Int32

The number of the cell's row.

col
Int32

The number of the cell's column.

Returns

A Rectangle that defines the current cell's corners.

Examples

The following code example uses the GetCellBounds method to return a Rectangle of a specified cell.

private:
   void dataGrid1_MouseDown( Object^ sender, MouseEventArgs^ e )
   {
      
      // Use the HitTest method to get a HitTestInfo object.
      System::Windows::Forms::DataGrid::HitTestInfo^ hi;
      DataGrid^ grid = dynamic_cast<DataGrid^>(sender);
      hi = grid->HitTest( e->X, e->Y );
      
      // Test if the clicked area was a cell.
      if ( hi->Type == DataGrid::HitTestType::Cell )
      {
         
         // If it's a cell, get the GridTable and CurrencyManager of the
         // clicked table.
         DataGridTableStyle^ dgt = dataGrid1->TableStyles[ 0 ];
         CurrencyManager^ myCurrencyManager = dynamic_cast<CurrencyManager^>(BindingContext[ myDataSet->Tables[ dataGrid1->DataMember ] ]);
         
         // Get the Rectangle of the clicked cell.
         Rectangle cellRect;
         cellRect = grid->GetCellBounds( hi->Row, hi->Column );
         
         // Get the clicked DataGridTextBoxColumn.
         DataGridTextBoxColumn^ gridCol = dynamic_cast<DataGridTextBoxColumn^>(dgt->GridColumnStyles[ hi->Column ]);
         
         // Insert code to edit the value.
      }
   }

      Rectangle cellRect;
      cellRect=grid.GetCellBounds(hi.Row, hi.Column);
      // Get the clicked DataGridTextBoxColumn.
      DataGridTextBoxColumn gridCol =
      (DataGridTextBoxColumn) dgt.GridColumnStyles[hi.Column];
      // Insert code to edit the value.
   }
}
    Private Sub dataGrid1_MouseDown _
(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As MouseEventArgs)
        ' Use the HitTest method to get a HitTestInfo object.
        Dim hi As System.Windows.Forms.DataGrid.HitTestInfo
        Dim grid As DataGrid = CType(sender, DataGrid)
        hi = grid.HitTest(e.X, e.Y)
        ' Test if the clicked area was a cell.
        If hi.Type = DataGrid.HitTestType.Cell Then
            ' If it's a cell, get the GridTable and CurrencyManager of the
            ' clicked table.         
            Dim dgt As DataGridTableStyle = dataGrid1.TableStyles(0)
            Dim myCurrencyManager As CurrencyManager = _
            CType(Me.BindingContext _
            (myDataSet.Tables(dataGrid1.DataMember)), CurrencyManager)
            ' Get the Rectangle of the clicked cell.
            Dim cellRect As Rectangle
            cellRect = grid.GetCellBounds(hi.Row, hi.Column)
            ' Get the clicked DataGridTextBoxColumn.
            Dim gridCol As DataGridTextBoxColumn = _
            CType(dgt.GridColumnStyles(hi.Column), DataGridTextBoxColumn)
            ' Insert code to dit the value.
        End If
    End Sub

Remarks

To retrieve the cell bounds for the currently selected cell, use GetCurrentCellBounds.
