Insert row in middle of DataGridView (C#)

Question

I would like to insert a new DataGridViewRow into my DataGridView at a specific index. If I just create a new Row like

DataGridViewRow dgwr = new DataGridViewRow();
datagridview1.Rows.Insert(index, dgwr);

I will not get the "settings" of the DataGridView, like for example my "Cells" will be 0. This does not happen if I use.

DataGridView1.Add();

But then again, then I cant chose where in the list I would like my post...

Is there anyway to combine these advantages?

Answer 1

grid.Rows.Insert(index, 1);
var addedRow = grid.Rows[index];

This inserts 1 empty templated row at 'index', and then simply accesses row in 'index'. The 2nd line is for accessing the just-now-added row.

Can also shorten if you know your wished row values with:

grid.Rows.Insert(index, FirstName, LastName, BirthDate, Etc);

Just have to make sure it is synced with the columns order in the grid, and it makes the row automatically with these fields.

Answer 2

DataGridView and DataGridRowView are just visual representations of your data source and one row in your data source. A new visual row should be displayed in your DataView after a new row is added to your data source.

If you want to get the view row when new row is added handle RowsAdded event.
