How to copy one row from gridview A to gridview B

Hi, i am using Visual Web Developer 2005 Express, i work with Visual Basic.
I need to copy one row from gridview A to gridview B, i have a checkbox in the first column that i let the user check it if they want to copy just one row, and if they want to copy more rows is just check more. And when the user press one button i need to loop the gridview and see what are the checked checkboxes and copy those rows to the other gridview. Any one can help me with the code. Thank you.

It depends how the data is bound to grid A. If you are using a datatable, then you will have to create a new datatable and add the rows you want to show manually. Then loop thru the datatable you have bound to grid A. If the row is checked, do something like this:

Code:

---

Dim row As DataRow = NewTable.NewRow()
For i As Int32 = 0 To NewTable.Columns.Count - 1
  row(i) = gridARow(i)
Next
NewTable.Rows.Add(row)

... After done looping thru GridA rows

gridB.DataSource = NewTable

Hi, i read your post and tried to solve my problem, but i couldn't yet.
I have a gridview and a sqldatasource, and the select statement is

SELECT DISTINCT p.Product_ID, [Product Name] AS Product_Name, [Sell Price], Quantity FROM Products AS p INNER JOIN Product_Categories AS pc ON p.Product_ID = pc.Product_ID WHERE (p.Product_ID LIKE '%' + @product_ID + '%') and ((pc.Category_ID LIKE @Category_ID) OR (pc.Category_ID LIKE @Category_ID2)) ORDER BY product_name

The user just choose products to be showed by categories or brands in a dropdownlist and i invoke the databind of the sqldatasource with the above sql statement. I need to search in the gridview1 for row checked to copy the row to the gridview2. I use a templatefield called cbxselect to select the rows i want to copy. I need help, because the system show a message saying that the gridview1Row is not declared. What i am doing wrong?

Take a look at my code:

Protected Sub btninsert_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btninsert.Click

For Each gvr As GridViewRow In GridView1.Rows
Dim cb As CheckBox = CType(gvr.FindControl("cbxselect"), CheckBox)

If cb.Checked = True Then
Dim row As DataRow = NewTable.NewRow()
For i As Int32 = 0 To NewTable.Columns.Count - 1
row(i) = GridView1Row(i)
Next
NewTable.Rows.Add(row)

End If
Next
''... After done looping thru GridA rows

GridView2.DataSource = NewTable
End Sub

Something like:

row(NewTable.Columns(i).ColumnName) = gvr(NewTable.Columns(i).ColumnName)

I am still with doubts inside the loop, how can i put the value of each column in each row in the other gridview. Lets say i have 2 columns called product_id and product name, how can i do this. I have highlighted the code here i have doubts. Please help me.

look:

For Each gvr As GridViewRow In GridView1.Rows
Dim cb As CheckBox = CType(gvr.FindControl("cbxselect"), CheckBox)

If cb.Checked = True Then
For i As Int32 = 0 To GridView1.Columns.Count - 1 ---is this correct for loop to every column in Row(i)?


' Here is my problem how can i copy the column from gridview source to gridview Destination

gridviewDestination.column(i)= gridviewsource.column(i) --- is this correct? what is the correct syntax to do this?
Next

End If
Next

Here is the whole thing:

Code:

---


Dim data as DataTable = HoweverYouGetYourData()
Dim newTable as New DataTable
For i as Int32 = 0 to data.Columns.Count - 1
  newTable.Columns.Add(data.Columns(i).ColumnName)
Next

For Each gvr As GridViewRow In GridView1.Rows
Dim cb As CheckBox = CType(gvr.FindControl("cbxselect"), CheckBox)

If cb.Checked = True Then
  Dim row as DataRow = newTable.NewRow
  For i as Int32 = 0 to data.Columns.Count - 1
      row(data.Columns(i).ColumnName) = gvr.Cells(data.Columns(i).ColumnName).Value
  Next
  newTable.Rows.Add(row)
End If

Next

GridView2.DataSource = newTable
