Question

Out of curiosity is it possible to open a form based on row selection in a datagrid? I would also need the form to show information based on the username in the datagrid. The persons username is included within the row of the datagrid.

Answer 1

You can handle this under the following event

 dataGridView1_CellClick

Get the CurrentCell value of the datagridiview

Check for the username exists or not as per you asked and show the respective form

Sample code:

if (this.dataGridView1.CurrentCell != null) 
{
    string strusrname=dataGridView1.CurrentCell.Value.ToString();
    //Here find out for the user name from the string as you get the currentcell value of the datagridview
    // Raise the corresponding form as per you required
}
