DataGridView - scrolling to a given row programatically

[JezB]

Not sure if DataGridView is part of VS 2005 or 2003, but does anyone know
how I can force a scroll to either the selected row or a specified row
number programatically ? I'm selecting a row programatically but it's not in
the visible portion of the grid.

Subclass DataGrid and provide your own ScrollToRow function

public void ScrollToRow(int rowIndex)
{
if(this.DataSource != null)
{
this.GridVScrolled(this,new
ScrollEventArgs(ScrollEventType.LargeIncrement,rowIndex));
}
}

GridVScrolled is a function that listens to the vertical bar scroll event,
you can call it from your own function.

Even easier way - remember the last selected row (i.e. some unique data, or a row counter)
then when you re populate or whatever, simply use

SendKeys.Send("{HOME}");
then the line below the amount of times you want to scroll down a row -
SendKeys.Send("{DOWN}");


Works a treat - after a good evening of pulling my hair out
