Board index » Visual Studio » Cannot clear all rows in datagridview

Visual Studio357
I tried almost everything

.Rows.clear()

.rowcount = 0

and the rows in a datagridview still not cleared



I populated the Datagridview manually using Row.Add



Any help is greatly appreciated

The code below works in a simple form with a DataGridView and Button

dropped on it.



Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As

System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

Me.DataGridView1.ColumnCount = 3

Me.DataGridView1.AllowUserToAddRows = False



Me.DataGridView1.Rows.Add(New String() {"abc", "efg", "hij"})

Me.DataGridView1.Rows.Add(New String() {"111", "efg", "hij"})

Me.DataGridView1.Rows.Add(New String() {"222", "efg", "hij"})



End Sub



Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e

As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

'either works

Me.DataGridView1.RowCount = 0

'Me.DataGridView1.Rows.Clear()

End Sub

I'll try again. How, exactly, do you know that Clear() is not working?

Have you added code to your application to check the remaining contents of

the DataTable within your DataGridView during the same run, or are you

checking your DataSource while in design mode?

I'm not going that far.

The Datagridview was still showing data. I want it to be cleared in my view.

If it cleared but I can still see all the rows and columns on the screen, I

would say that it's not working!



Thanks



Bill

Here's an article written on the subject that may be useful:

I guess it depends on how you're populating the DataGridView. If it's bound

to a data source then I would remove the binding; otherwise, if the rows

were added manually then I would just clear the rows collection.



if (this.dataGridView1.DataSource != null)

{

this.dataGridView1.DataSource = null;





}





else

{

this.dataGridView1.Rows.Clear();





}





Does that work in your situation?

I realize the code is C#, but the translation should pose no problems. Works

for me.
