Solution 1

Solution for Windows Form:
You can use DataGridView.CurrentCell[^] property.

Example:

C#

DataGridViewCell cell = this.dataGridView1.Rows[RowIndex].Cells[ColumnIndex];
//update
this.dataGridView1.CurrentCell = cell;

but how do I declare the code for the current selected row. using the above code I can set the current cell to a specified row and cell but how to set it automatically to a selected row

Just try it. CurrentRow property is read only. CurrentCell is what you're looking for ;)
