how to get row if in datatable?

[Sean]

I need to modify a datatable. I am wondering how to get the datatable row
index number? assuming I have a column 0 whose entry is unique.

Thanks.

Does this help....

dgUsers.DataKeyField = "ID"

key = dgUsers.DataKeys(dgUsers.SelectedIndex).ToString()

Hi

You can use DataTable.Rows.Find() Method to get the RowIndex

But the find method returns a datarow, not the row index of the rows
collection as per the help file shown below. So how do you get the
RowIndex"

Private Sub FindInMultiPKey(ByVal myTable As DataTable)
Dim foundRow As DataRow
' Create an array for the key values to find.
Dim findTheseVals(2) As Object
' Set the values of the keys to find.
findTheseVals(0) = "John"
findTheseVals(1) = "Smith"
findTheseVals(2) = "5 Main St."
foundRow = myTable.Rows.Find(findTheseVals)
' Display column 1 of the found row.
If Not (foundRow Is Nothing) Then
Console.WriteLine(foundRow(1).ToString())
End If
End Sub
