Column name??

[gate7cy]

I have a datagridview in a winform for my .net application. Using access 07 for db. I am trying to retrieve the name of the selected column but I have found nothing available to assist me. This is what I do on the ColumnheaderMouseClick event :

 Dim criteria As Integer
        criteria = CInt(AllServicesDataGridView.SelectedColumns.ToString)


        Dim xx As String
        xx = AllServicesDataGridView.Columns(criteria).HeaderText
        TextBox1.Text = xx

With this this I get this exception

conversion from string "System.Windows.forms.datagridview to type integer is not valid

thanks for all the help.

Try this:

Private Sub DataGridView1_ColumnHeaderMouseClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellMouseEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.ColumnHeaderMouseClick
        Dim dgv As DataGridView = DirectCast(sender, DataGridView)
        TextBox1.Text  = dgv.Columns(e.ColumnIndex).HeaderText
    End Sub
