WPF Datagrid Get Selected Cell Value

Please refer to the DataGrid Class page on MSDN. From that page:

Selection

By default, the entire row is selected when a user clicks a cell in a DataGrid, and a user can select multiple rows. You can set the SelectionMode property to specify whether a user can select cells, full rows, or both. Set the SelectionUnit property to specify whether multiple rows or cells can be selected, or only single rows or cells.

You can get information about the cells that are selected from the SelectedCells property. You can get information about cells for which selection has changed in the SelectedCellsChangedEventArgs of the SelectedCellsChanged event. Call the SelectAllCells or UnselectAllCells methods to programmatically select or unselect all cells. For more information, see Default Keyboard and Mouse Behavior in the DataGrid Control.

I have added links to the relevant properties for you, but I'm out of time now, so I hope you can follow the links to get your solution.

When I faced this problem, I approached it like this: I created a DataRowView, grabbed the column index, and then used that in the row's ItemArray

DataRowView dataRow = (DataRowView)dataGrid1.SelectedItem;
int index = dataGrid1.CurrentCell.Column.DisplayIndex;
string cellValue = dataRow.Row.ItemArray[index].ToString();

I'm extending the solution by Rushi to following (which solved the puzzle for me)

var cellInfo = Grid1.SelectedCells[0];
var content = (cellInfo.Column.GetCellContent(cellInfo.Item) as TextBlock).Text;

If you are selecting only one cell then get selected cell content like this

var cellInfo = dataGrid1.SelectedCells[0];

var content = cellInfo.Column.GetCellContent(cellInfo.Item);

Here content will be your selected cells value

And if you are selecting multiple cells then you can do it like this

var cellInfos = dataGrid1.SelectedCells;

var list1 = new List<string>();

foreach (DataGridCellInfo cellInfo in cellInfos)
{
    if (cellInfo.IsValid)
    {
        //GetCellContent returns FrameworkElement
        var content= cellInfo.Column.GetCellContent(cellInfo.Item); 

        //Need to add the extra lines of code below to get desired output

        //get the datacontext from FrameworkElement and typecast to DataRowView
        var row = (DataRowView)content.DataContext;

        //ItemArray returns an object array with single element
        object[] obj = row.Row.ItemArray;

        //store the obj array in a list or Arraylist for later use
        list1.Add(obj[0].ToString());
    }
}
