Occurs when the user deletes a row from the DataGridView control.
(in System.Windows.Forms.dll)
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Event UserDeletingRow As DataGridViewRowCancelEventHandler
Dim instance As DataGridView
Dim handler As DataGridViewRowCancelEventHandler
AddHandler instance.UserDeletingRow, handler
public event DataGridViewRowCancelEventHandler UserDeletingRow
public:
event DataGridViewRowCancelEventHandler^ UserDeletingRow {
void add (DataGridViewRowCancelEventHandler^ value);
void remove (DataGridViewRowCancelEventHandler^ value);
}
JScript does not support events.
This event can be canceled to prevent a row deletion from being completed.
For more information about handling events, see Consuming Events.
The following code example demonstrates how to use the UserDeletingRow event to cancel the deletion of rows from the DataGridView if the starting balance row is included in the selection. This example is part of a larger example available in the SelectionChanged event.
Private Sub UserDeletingRow(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As DataGridViewRowCancelEventArgs) _
Handles DataGridView1.UserDeletingRow
Dim startingBalanceRow As DataGridViewRow = DataGridView1.Rows(0)
' Check if the starting balance row is included in the selected rows
If DataGridView1.SelectedRows.Contains(startingBalanceRow) Then
If e.Row.Equals(startingBalanceRow) Then
' Do not allow the user to delete the Starting Balance row.
MessageBox.Show("Cannot delete Starting Balance row!")
End If
' Cancel the deletion if the Starting Balance row is included.
e.Cancel = True
End If
End Sub
private void DataGridView1_UserDeletingRow(object sender,
DataGridViewRowCancelEventArgs e)
{
DataGridViewRow startingBalanceRow = DataGridView1.Rows[0];
// Check if the Starting Balance row is included in the selected rows
if (DataGridView1.SelectedRows.Contains(startingBalanceRow))
{
// Do not allow the user to delete the Starting Balance row.
if (e.Row.Equals(startingBalanceRow))
{
MessageBox.Show("Cannot delete Starting Balance row!");
}
// Cancel the deletion if the Starting Balance row is included.
e.Cancel = true;
}
