How to disable/enable a selected cell in a DataGRid view

[Rod41]

I need a sample code that will disable a selected cell in a DataGridView using VB.net code.
in my cell(10) there were two controls as TextBox. Only txtEntryDateTo_Store should be disabled.

Below is my sample code, kindly insert your code in between my script..


Dim todaydate As DateTime = DateTime.Now
Dim gridViewRow As GridViewRow
Dim intApprCount As Integer = 0
If grdTransaction_Store.Rows.Count > 0 Then
For Each gridViewRow In grdTransaction_Store.Rows
Dim lblEntryDateFrom_Store As Label = CType(gridViewRow.Cells(9).FindControl("lblEntryDateFrom_Store"), Label)
Dim lblExitDateFrom_Store As Label = CType(gridViewRow.Cells(9).FindControl("lblExitDateFrom_Store"), Label)
Dim txtEntryDateTo_Store As TextBox = CType(gridViewRow.Cells(10).FindControl("lblEntryDateTo_Store"), TextBox)
Dim txtExitDateTo_Store As TextBox = CType(gridViewRow.Cells(10).FindControl("lblExitDateTo_Store"), TextBox)
Dim ContractEntryDate As DateTime = Convert.ToDateTime(lblEntryDateFrom_Store.Text)
If ContractEntryDate.Month < todaydate.Month Then
'
' Place your sample code that will disable this current cell..
' gridViewRow.Cells(10).FindControl("lblEntryDateTo_Store")
'
'
End If
Next
End If

2 things:

First, please indent your code and put it in code tags. If you're going to ask us to help you, please make it easier for us to do so.

Dim todaydate As DateTime = DateTime.Now
Dim gridViewRow As GridViewRow
Dim intApprCount As Integer = 0
If grdTransaction_Store.Rows.Count > 0 Then
    For Each gridViewRow In grdTransaction_Store.Rows
        Dim lblEntryDateFrom_Store As Label = CType(gridViewRow.Cells(9).FindControl("lblEntryDateFrom_Store"), Label)
        Dim lblExitDateFrom_Store As Label = CType(gridViewRow.Cells(9).FindControl("lblExitDateFrom_Store"), Label)
        Dim txtEntryDateTo_Store As TextBox = CType(gridViewRow.Cells(10).FindControl("lblEntryDateTo_Store"), TextBox)
        Dim txtExitDateTo_Store As TextBox = CType(gridViewRow.Cells(10).FindControl("lblExitDateTo_Store"), TextBox)
        Dim ContractEntryDate As DateTime = Convert.ToDateTime(lblEntryDateFrom_Store.Text)
        If ContractEntryDate.Month < todaydate.Month Then
            '
            ' Place your sample code that will disable this current cell..
            ' gridViewRow.Cells(10).FindControl("lblEntryDateTo_Store")
            '
            '
        End If
    Next
End If

Second, what exactly is it that you want to do? The title says "disable/enable a selected cell", then in the post you say there are 2 textboxes in the cell and you want to disable only one of them, *not* the entire cell. Then later you again say you want to disable the entire cell ("Place your sample code that will disable this current cell.."). Then there's these 2 lines of code:

Dim txtEntryDateTo_Store As TextBox = CType(gridViewRow.Cells(10).FindControl("lblEntryDateTo_Store"), TextBox)
Dim txtExitDateTo_Store As TextBox = CType(gridViewRow.Cells(10).FindControl("lblExitDateTo_Store"), TextBox)

which indicate that the controls in the cell are actually Labels (assuming that's what the prefix "lbl" means), not TextBoxes.

So, perhaps a more high-level description of what you're trying to accomplish will help clarify things a bit.
