You can handle the CellParsing event to parse the cell value to a correct format something like this Code Snippet void dataGridView1_ CellParsing ( object sender DataGridViewCellParsingEventArgs e) { if (e.ColumnIndex == 0) { string date = ( string )e.Value; try { string month = date.Substring(0 2); string day = date.Substring(2 2); string year = date.Substring(4 4); e.Value = new DateTime ( Convert .ToInt32(year) Convert .ToInt32(month) Convert .ToInt32(day)); e.ParsingApplied = true ; } catch ( Exception ex) { MessageBox .Show( parsing error! ); } } }

Hi Gopal I think u can write validation code in the 'CellEndEdit' event of the datagridview. In this event u will get the e.rowindex. Thanks anusha.
