When this method is called, each column and row's Selected property is set to false.

The following code example clears the selection of the DataGridView. To run this example, paste the code into a form that contains a DataGridView named dataGridView1 and a Button named clearSelectionButton, and ensure all events are associated with their event handlers.

Private Sub clearSelectionButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, _
    ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles clearSelectionButton.Click

    dataGridView1.ClearSelection()

End Sub

private void clearSelectionButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    dataGridView1.ClearSelection();
}
