Show the selected row record in textbox/label

Question

How do I make the selected row record from a DataGridView show in a TextBox? I got some TextBox and Label in a Form. I want the text inside the TextBox/Label to change when the user selects a row record from the DataGridView. I tried the following code to make it happen, but it doesn't work

private void ItemTable_RowHeaderMouseClick(object sender, DataGridViewCellMouseEventArgs e)
{
    label_itemid_show.Text = ItemTable.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[0].Value.ToString();
    text_itemname.Text = ItemTable.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[1].Value.ToString();
    text_itemprice.Text = ItemTable.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[2].Value.ToString();
    text_itemstock.Text = ItemTable.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[3].Value.ToString();
}

I'm working on a project that includes a features similar to yours. Currently I select a record in a datagridview and need to show it's values to textboxes so that any values can be edited.

This is how I tackle the problem.

Models.Item item = DAL.ItemDAL.GetItem(Convert.ToInt32(ItemDataGrid.CurrentRow.Cells[0].Value));
        tbModifyItemID.Text = Convert.ToString(item.ItemID);
        tbModifyItemName.Text = item.ItemName;

It's the ItemDataGridView.CurrentRow.Cells[0].Value that finds me the ItemID of the selected record.

In your case it's [DataGridName].CurrentRow.Cells[FieldNo, starting at 0].Value.ToString();

This allows you to click on any cell in the record and still retrieve the specified cell in the code.

Hope it helps c:

PS: If you put it inside a

private void ItemDataGrid_SelectionChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)

method it will run the code anytime you click a different cell in the datagridview.
