Hi Hanafi, I got your problem. Add this code. if (TheDataGridView.Rows[CurrentRow].Cells[CurrentCell].OwningColumn.HeaderText.Equals("JUMLAH")) { MessageBox.Show("Header=Jumlah"); } Please tick ' Do you like this answer ' checkbox if this helps you.

Hi niki I feel very sorry to make you busy I also feel afraid to bother others by sending large file to this site ,so I think better to point the site which launch the class: it is in http://www.codeproject.com/KB/printing/datagridviewprinter.aspx?msg=2279275#xx2279275xx thank you & best regard

Hi Hanafi, I'm sorry. Your code is still not clear for me. Can you upload your project? If it is too big, then at least paste or upload the code of the whole class. Then I'll help you for sure.

Hi Niki here is the snippet of code,I get it from ia site and try to make little change for my own need. I suppose the iteration loop is from leftmost cell to the rightmost thank you and nice regard btw you have nice to hear name //----------------- for (int CurrentCell = (int)mColumnPoints[mColumnPoint].GetValue(0); CurrentCell CurrentCell++) { // If the cell is belong to invisible // column, then ignore this iteration if (!TheDataGridView.Columns[CurrentCell].Visible) continue; // Check the CurrentCell alignment // and apply it to the CellFormat if (TheDataGridView.Columns[CurrentCell].DefaultCellStyle. Alignment.ToString().Contains("Right")) CellFormat.Alignment = StringAlignment.Far; else if (TheDataGridView.Columns[CurrentCell].DefaultCellStyle. Alignment.ToString().Contains("Center")) CellFormat.Alignment = StringAlignment.Center; else CellFormat.Alignment = StringAlignment.Near; ColumnWidth = ColumnsWidth[CurrentCell]; RectangleF CellBounds = new RectangleF(CurrentX, CurrentY, ColumnWidth, RowsHeight[CurrentRow]); //int intx = TheDataGridView.CurrentCell.ColumnIndex; //if (intx==1) //{ // MessageBox.Show("1"); //} g.DrawString( TheDataGridView.Rows[CurrentRow].Cells[CurrentCell]. EditedFormattedValue.ToString(), RowFont, RowForeBrush, CellBounds, CellFormat); ////// I put the addition in here ---------------------not " CITy" i am looking for but "JUMLAH" ////--------------- if (TheDataGridView.CurrentCell.OwningColumn.HeaderText == "JUMLAH") { MessageBox.Show("Header=Jumlah"); } ///////-------------------------------------------------- // Drawing the cell bounds // Draw the cell border only // if the CellBorderStyle is not None if (TheDataGridView.CellBorderStyle != DataGridViewCellBorderStyle.None) g.DrawRectangle(TheLinePen, CurrentX, CurrentY, ColumnWidth, RowsHeight[CurrentRow]); CurrentX += ColumnWidth; } //------------------------------------

hi friend, where did you place thie code block. If you select a cell in city column you should get the message box.But for that, you should place this code block inside cellclick event of datagridview. If you can upload your code, I can correct it.
