(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hi all - I have made a datagridview(DGV) clients list with a cointext menu with mods. This worked fine, but I found it tiresome right-clicking peoples name and selecting mods, then on/off...especially with a laptop touchpad mouse.

So I thought I would make a DGV with checkbox/button columns instead...I have seen it done on here somewhere. The thing is, I can't figure out how to use the checkboxes. I tried something simple like a messagebox popping up when I tick a box, but I just can't get it working...is there a tut or can anyone explain to me how these work?

I have a DGV with the following headers;

client number (text)
client name (text)
godmode (checkbox)
noclip (checkbox)
autokill (checkbox)
Kill (button)
Change Name (button)

I can add rows and populate the number/name columns, but the others I need a hand with

Thanks

***EDIT***
Ok, here is a shot of the table as I want it

You must login or register to view this content.

and this is what I have in my code so far

    private void dataGridView1_CellContentClick(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)

        {

            foreach (DataGridViewRow row in dataGridView1.Rows)

            {

                if (row.Cells[5].Value != null)

                {

                    if ((bool)row.Cells[5].Value == true)

                    {

                        MessageBox.Show("Success", "Hang On", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information);

                    }

                }

            }

        }

Now what I dont understand is why I get the test pop-up box when I tick the UAV box...I have specified cell index 5, but to my mind the UAV box is cell index 4 (assuming the index starts with 0 from left to right)

And to make it even worse, cell index 6 does nothing, but cell index 4 is apparently the kill button

Thats the other thing...I can't put text in my buttons for some reason.

First
About the text
I tried it aswell, look's like the Cell.Text is pretty fu**ed..
So i used this code instead:

    dataGridView1.Rows[0].Cells[6].Value = "Kill";

Just add it to the designer or to the Form1_Load

Second for checkboxes:
First you must use those 2 events:

    

        private void dataGridView1_CellContentClick(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)

        {

            if (dataGridView1.IsCurrentCellDirty) //So it wont throw exception

                dataGridView1.CommitEdit(DataGridViewDataErrorContexts.Commit);

        }

        private void dataGridView1_CellValueChanged(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)

        {

            //Shit here

            if (done)

                MessageBox.Show(dataGridView1.CurrentRow.Index.ToString());

        }

I used a bool "done"
So once you ended adding up all the rows and everything
On the form1_load, in the end put done = true;
Then, it will work fine
Try not to use the bool, you will see what im talking about
Hope that helped

Wow, thanks for that reply...I still however cant get it to work. I have copied your code word for word and put the bool in a form1_load (i had to make it...there wasnt one there) but nothing happened.

The text thing didnt work either but I can live without that as I know what they do lol.

One thing I have noticed with my original code is that ticking a box (autokill in my example above...cell index 5) doesnt show a messagebox (like I want) - it enables/disables the other boxes/ buttons to popup the messagebox instead...prob the source of confusion with cell indexes lol.

Obviously what I need is different things being switched on/off depending on the box, not all boxes doing on/off for 1 thing depending on the state of 1 box :confused:
