# C# datagridview full row selection but get single cell value

I have a [datagridview](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/607/working-with-datagridview-in-vc-sharp) that is a [full](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12893/experience-the-full-power-of-suitecrm) row select. How would I grab the [data](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/13050/salesforce-aiming-to-dominate-predictive-analytics-with-data-science) from only a certain cell no matter what cell in the row was clicked on since it highlights the [entire row](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/46828/if-i-buy-an-entire-row-of-seats-on-a-long-flight-so-no-one-is-next-to-me-can-the-airline-sell-one-of-my-empty-seats-to-someone-or-will-they-respect-the-fact-that-the-empty-seats-are-mine-to-do-as-i-p).

You can do like this......

```
     private void datagridview1_SelectionChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
     {
         if (datagridview1.SelectedCells.Count > 0)
         {
             int selectedrowindex = datagridview1.SelectedCells[0].RowIndex;
             DataGridViewRow selectedRow = datagridview1.Rows[selectedrowindex];
              string a = Convert.ToString(selectedRow.Cells["you have to mention you cell  corresponding column name"].Value);
         }
     }
```
