Webpage Datagrid

[Guest]

I have an asp page which contains a datagrid.
Is it possible to let a user highlight or focus on a certain cell (can be
any row and any column) and extract the contents of that cell?
I have not been able to find a sample of this scenario.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Nothing's built in to do this. You'd have to use stylesheets and javascript
to get this behavior.

Frank,

Datagrid renders as a table. In ItemDataBound event handler you get
reference to every row. You can setup client side onclick event for every
cell to highlight the cell. If you mean accessing the cell content on the
client, you can either pass "this" parameter to the client-side onclick
event handler or operate on the dhtml model for the table the datagrid is
rendered as.
