Question

Good day guys, I have 5 datagridview which is bind in 5 different binding source.

After my edit function I want to refresh the datagrid or the dataset but I cant get the name of the active datagridview.

what i wanted to do after the edit is this :

(Active Datagridview)..DataSource = typeof(List); 

(Active Datagridview).DataSource = dataset.Tables["your table"]; 

this is my way to refresh the data in datagridview, I'll remove the datasource of datagrid view and set again the datasource.

Answer 2

In your event handler datagridview_DoubleClick you can get a reference to datagridview where was double clicked. So you can have only one handler for all 5 datagridviews. In this handler you can put reference of DataGridView to your Edit form(before create constructor of Edit form with parameter of DataGridView) or get only a name of DatagridView as you was asked

private sub datagridview_DoubleClick(sender as Object, e as EventArgs) Handle datagridview1.DoubleClick,
                                                                       datagridview2.DoubleClick,
                                                                       datagridview3.DoubleClick,                                                                              
                                                                       datagridview4.DoubleClick,
                                                                       datagridview5.DoubleClick
    Dim dgvClicked as DataGridView = DirectCast(sender, DataGridView)
    dim frmEdit as FormEdit = New FormEdit(dgvClicked)
    frmEdit.ShowDialog()
    ....

End Sub
