Question

I have a program with 2 forms and both forms have their own grid. Grid1 is on form1, Grid2 is on form2. I want Grid2 to serve as a pop up window which is used for editing. When a user doubleclicks a row on Grid1, it should do a requery on just that row and display that single row on Grid2. I can’t figure out how to get the column names of the selectedrow then do a query on it’s unique identifers. What I have so far:
(This is on form1 by the way)

 Public Sub dgvForm1_CellDoubleClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles dgvForm1.CellDoubleClick

Dim i As Integer = 0
Dim rowIndex As Integer
Dim cellName as string



While dgvForm1.SelectedRows.Item(0).Cells(i).ColumnIndex < dgvForm1.ColumnCount

      rowIndex = dgvForm1.SelectedRows.Item(0).HeaderCell.RowIndex
      cellName = dgvForm1.SelectedRows.Item(0).HeaderCell.toString 
      Select Case cellName
             Case "control_no"
                 Dim sControlNum = cellName.ToString
             Case "store_id"
                 Dim sStoreNum = cellName.ToString
      End Select

      i = i + 1
End While
end sub

I simply just want the user to doubleclick a row that is displayed on a datagridview with many other records, and that triggers a doubleclick event. This would then loop through the selectedrow’s column names until it finds both control_id and store_id and gets their values. P.s. I tried google for a good hour or so but I had a hard time getting any techniques to work.

UPDATE:
I should probably add, this is a bound datagrid that uses sqlClient and its dataadapter/dataset method.
