Disable the multiple range selection
To disable the multiple range selection of cells for a particular column in the WinForms GridControl, you need to cancel the SelectionChanging event. The following code explains about how to disable the selection for the second column.
this.gridControl1.SelectionChanging += gridControl1_SelectionChanging
void gridControl1_SelectionChanging(object sender, Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridSelectionChangingEventArgs e)
{
//consider 2nd column as OrginalTextBox celltype.
if (e.Reason == GridSelectionReason.MouseMove && e.ClickRange.Left == 2)
{
e.Cancel = true;
}
}AddHandler Me.gridControl1.SelectionChanging, AddressOf gridControl1_SelectionChanging
Private Sub gridControl1_SelectionChanging(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridSelectionChangingEventArgs)
'Consider 2nd column as OrginalTextBox celltype.
If e.Reason = GridSelectionReason.MouseMove AndAlso e.ClickRange.Left = 2 Then
e.Cancel = True
End If
End Sub Conclusion
