Note: This class is new in the .NET Framework version 2.0.

Contains information, such as the row and column indexes, about a specific coordinate pair in the DataGridView control. This class cannot be inherited.

Namespace: System.Windows.Forms
Assembly: System.Windows.Forms (in system.windows.forms.dll)

'Declaration
Public NotInheritable Class HitTestInfo
'Usage
Dim instance As HitTestInfo

public final class HitTestInfo

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 clickedCell As DataGridViewCell

Private Sub dataGridView1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, _
    ByVal e As MouseEventArgs) Handles dataGridView1.MouseDown

    ' If the user right-clicks a cell, store it for use by the 
    ' shortcut menu.
    If e.Button = MouseButtons.Right Then
        Dim hit As DataGridView.HitTestInfo = _
            dataGridView1.HitTest(e.X, e.Y)
        If hit.Type = DataGridViewHitTestType.Cell Then
            clickedCell = _
                dataGridView1.Rows(hit.RowIndex).Cells(hit.ColumnIndex)
        End If
    End If

End Sub
