Question

I would like to copy Datagridview selected rows to clipboard and paste them in notepad or Microsoft Word. What is the best method to achieve this?

Thank you..

Answer 1

I use a Copy menu item. If you want to use Ctrl+C, then you'll have to implement keyboard events. Here is my code:

private void copyToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
       foreach (Control myControl in tabControl1.SelectedTab.Controls)
       {
             if (myControl is DataGridView))
             {
                    DataGridView tempdgv = (DataGridView)myControl;
                    DataObject dataObj = tempdgv.GetClipboardContent();
                    try
                    {
                        Clipboard.SetDataObject(dataObj, true);
                    }
                    catch (Exception ex)
                    {
                         // Do Something
                    }
                    finally
                    {
                        if (selectAllToolStripMenuItem.Checked)
                        {
                            selectAllToolStripMenuItem_Click(this, EventArgs.Empty);
                        }

                    }
                }
     }
}

请参阅如何：使用户能够从Windows Forms DataGridView控件将多个单元格复制到剪贴板

Answer 3

这会将DataGridView中当前选定的单元格myDataGridView数据复制到剪贴板。

Clipboard.SetDataObject(myDataGridView.GetClipboardContent())
