Hi,
How can I detect if the cell on which the user clicked, belong to which
column of my datagrid ?

say if the user clicks on a cell in the second column, I would be able
to detect it is the second column.

Thx

not really :(
my main issue here is to detect the mouse click on a cell, and then to
figure out which column it belongs to.
thx

I found out :

intcolNum = dataGrid1.CurrentCell.ColumnNumber;

int rowNum = dataGrid1.CurrentCell.RowNumber;
