private void Button6_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{

    foreach (DataGridViewRow row in dataGridView.Rows)

        if (row.IsNewRow) continue;
        row.HeaderCell.Value = "Row " + rowNumber;
        rowNumber = rowNumber + 1;

' Set row labels.

    ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button6.Click

    Dim rowNumber As Integer = 1
    For Each row As DataGridViewRow In dataGridView.Rows
        If row.IsNewRow Then Continue For
        row.HeaderCell.Value = "Row " & rowNumber
        rowNumber = rowNumber + 1
