You can use Data Grid’s cell validating event For example in your Data Grid if there are 3 columns You want second column as required that is user must enter value Following is the code for Cell validating event private void dataGridView1_CellValidating( object sender DataGridViewCellValidatingEventArgs e) { if (e.ColumnIndex == 1 && (dataGridView1[e.ColumnIndex e.RowIndex].EditedFormattedValue == null || dataGridView1[e.ColumnIndex e.RowIndex].EditedFormattedValue.ToString() == string .Empty)) e.Cancel = true ; } Hope this helps
