I think, it will be better if you merge tables first and then bind Gridview to
that table.

megred even if user selects merged cell.

Merging mode will be turned on after button "Merge" is clicked.
This is just the EXAMPLE(wrote by 10-15 minutes

Hi Timur Akhmedov , Thank you soo much , Your code helped me a lot. But I'm
facing a problem.My datagridview have a column w ith checkbox , w hen I merge

show a single checkbox column for the entire row that I merged. Hope you got
w hat I asked.

If Data Grid View generating in Run Time Auto generated it is show ing error in your
code in the below line
else
{
MergeCells(Row sToMerge[0], Row sToMerge[1], dataGrid.Columns["Rack"].Index,
isSelectedCell(Row sToMerge, dataGrid.Columns["Rack"].Index) ? true : false);
CollectMergedRow sInFirstColumn(Row sToMerge[0], Row sToMerge[1]);
Row sToMerge[0] = -1;
}

Could you elaborate how does it w ork? I don't see cells merging here...
-Timur

Felipe Kautzm ann de Mello 31-Jan-11 11:00am

Sure,
Actually in this case I did merged Row s.
You have to iterate into the cell, saving the first one a some variable, after that you have
to match this variable (previous data) w ith the actual iterate data, if this is true, you have
to concatenate and delete the row , implement the same logic w ith these cells like I did.
If you need a w orkaround please post your code.
Cheers,

gksdy2000 31-Jan-11 16:57pm

Maybe, is this grid in Web?
Grid of the question is in Winforms.

Felipe Kautzm ann de Mello 31-Jan-11 20:45pm

Yes, it is.
But the logic still the same. If you post your code w ill be better.

Rate this:

Merging cells in DataGridView is difficult thing because there are no

standard ways to do this:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/enUS/winformsdatacontrols/thread/fea3dcff-5447-450a-8f7cbb1c4f63371d/[^]
Here is solution I found:
http://www.codeguru.com/forum/showthread.php?t=415930[^]
But if you still want to do this - algorithm should be easy:
1. Merge cells in First column
2. Merge cells in rest of columns which have the same cell in first column
Hope this will help
