The HitTest method of the DataGridView class returns a DataGridView.HitTestInfo. You can use this method to determine which part of the DataGridView control is located at the specified coordinates. For example, you can call this method specifying the coordinates of a mouse click to determine the row and column indexes of the clicked cell or whether a header cell or scroll bar was clicked.
The following code example illustrates the use of this type. This example is part of a larger example available in the DataGridView.Columns property reference topic.
private DataGridViewCell clickedCell; private void dataGridView1_MouseDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e) { // If the user right-clicks a cell, store it for use by the shortcut menu. if (e.Button == MouseButtons.Right) { DataGridView.HitTestInfo hit = dataGridView1.HitTest(e.X, e.Y); if (hit.Type == DataGridViewHitTestType.Cell) { clickedCell = dataGridView1.Rows[hit.RowIndex].Cells[hit.ColumnIndex]; } } }
