Add row number in datagridview in vb.net

Question

I am developing Windows Application in Vb.Net. Now there is one form in which I want to print records displayed in the grid. There is a facility to sort grid by clicking on the cell header in the grid And that should be print as displayed in the grid.

So I am little bit confuse about how to maintain the row number in the grid. I can take row number from DB initially when grid fill and assign data source. But when user clicks any cell header and sort that column then the row number is changed. At that time it is very difficult for me to maintain the row number.

Can any one give me idea how to maintain row number in the grid?

Thanks in advance.

@VishalSuthar no when i print the record from the grid it should print same as display in grid after sorting or not sorting. — Brijesh Patel, Jan 09 '13 at 08:06

I guess you need this:

NOTE: This code is in C# so you can just convert it to VB.Net

delegate:

this.dgvUserDetails.RowPostPaint += new System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewRowPostPaintEventHandler(this.dgvUserDetails_RowPostPaint);

Event:

private void dgvUserDetails_RowPostPaint(object sender, DataGridViewRowPostPaintEventArgs e)
{
        using (SolidBrush b = new SolidBrush(dgvUserDetails.RowHeadersDefaultCellStyle.ForeColor))
        {
              e.Graphics.DrawString((e.RowIndex + 1).ToString(), e.InheritedRowStyle.Font, b, e.RowBounds.Location.X + 10, e.RowBounds.Location.Y + 4);
        }
}

OUTPUT

row number

@kashif Or you could do with the help of: _dataGridView.ColumnHeadersDefaultCellStyle.BackColor = Color.Blue; _dataGridView.EnableHeadersVisualStyles = false; – Vishal Suthar Mar 21 '13 at 10:27

thanks for introducing such a good visualstyler to me. I installed it from the website you mentioned and changed my projects style using office2010 skin. now my application looks many times better than the one it was earlier. after a few days it started to ask me for licence. can you please tell me where did you download the cracked version from?? I downloaded the version v2.4.50000.1 and didn't find any key free of cost from google. it worths 250 us dollars equals to 25000 pak rupees that I can't even think of. I would be really happy if you solve my registeration problem any how – kashif Mar 23 '13 at 08:35
