Solution 1

use DataGridView.CellClick Event[^] and get the row using dataGridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex] and also you can get other cell values in the same row using cell index, for example

C#

dataGridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[1]

The code u gave me returns Column number and Row index. I want that if i click on any cell i get value of cell next to it . such as if click on John i should get its corresponding value from next cell .

if you know the current cell index, can't you calculate next cell index? :)

No i am not able to calculate next cell index . please help.

if cell is not the last cell of the row

dataGridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[e.ColumnIndex+1]

Hello ,
First use DatGridview.CellClick Event that already described by DamithSL and then check the ColumnIndex of the clicked cell by this way .

var columnindex= dataGridView.CurrentCell.ColumnIndex;
//Now add 1 for get next  column index
var nextcolumnindex=columnindex+1 ;

//and ultimately get the value of next column by this way
var nextcolumnvalue =dataGridView.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[nextcolumnindex].Value;

thanks
