I have a DataGridView. I want to do this; I will use a textbox. After the DataGridView filling, I will fill my textbox with a word and if my DataGridView's any line contains this word, I will export these lines to a new DataGridView. Let me explain. My DataGridView looks like that;
Column1 Column2 Column3
-------------------------------------------------------------------
albania algeria 800 55.32
antarctica argentina 950
brazil bulgaria 25 77
india indonesia 30000 78.53
argentina iran 18 0.01
moldova mongolia 25854 77.50
And imagine that I have a textbox. Let's say I wrote Argentina in my textbox. After this operation my new DataGridView looks like that;
Column1 Column2 Column3
------------------------------------------------------------------
antarctica argentina 950
argentina iran 18 0.01
Note: I couldn't produce any idea for it, sorry.
Assuming you really need two DataGridViews:
private void button2_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
dataGridView2.Rows.Clear();
var filterText = textBox1.Text;
foreach (DataGridViewRow row in dataGridView1.Rows)
{
if (Convert.ToString(row.Cells[0].Value).Contains(filterText))
{
var filteredRow = (DataGridViewRow)row.Clone();
//Copy values from one DataGridViewRow to another
foreach (DataGridViewCell cell in row.Cells)
{
filteredRow.Cells[cell.ColumnIndex].Value = cell.Value;
}
dataGridView2.Rows.Add(filteredRow);
}
}
}
