check if a gridview cell is double clicked

Question

Hello everyone :)

I have a datagridview with 3 columns. For exemple:

product          price          order
chocolate 5        order
cake    6          order
candies 3          order

How can i check if the bolded cell was double clicked? because when that cell is clicked i want to show a form. Any help? Thanks.

You can handle the DataGridView's CellDoubleClick event: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.datagridview.celldoubleclick(v=vs.100).aspx As you'll see from the example the DataGridViewCellEventArgs argument has RowIndex and ColumnIndex properties which enable you to determine which cell was double clicked. Notice also that when a cell is double clicked the CellClick event occurs first. So if you're handling this as well I'd make sure it's not doing something which is inconsistent with a double click because there's no easy way to distinguish between the two events.
