Visual Basic

Imports Infragistics.Shared
Imports Infragistics.Win
Imports Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid
Imports System.Diagnostics

   Private Sub Button63_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles button63.Click

       Dim row As UltraGridRow = Me.UltraGrid1.Rows(1)
       Dim column As UltraGridColumn = Me.UltraGrid1.DisplayLayout.Bands(0).Columns(1)

       ' UltraGridCell.Value property returns the same value as returned by GetCellValue below.
       Dim cellVal1 As Object = row.Cells(column).Value

       ' UltraGridRow.GetCellValue method returns the cell's value.
       Dim cellVal2 As Object = row.GetCellValue(column)

       ' UltraGridCell.Text property returns the same text as returned by GetCellText below 
       ' except when the cell is in edit mode in which case the UltraGridCell.Text returns the
       ' current text that the user has entered in the cell while UltraGridColumn.GetCellText 
       ' returns the cell's value that's in the bound list converted to text. NOTE: The same
       ' doesn't hold true for UltraGridCell.Value and UltraGridColumn.GetCellValue where both
       ' return the values from the bound list regardless of whether the cell is in edit mode and
       ' the user has modified the cell's value.
       Dim cellText1 As String = row.Cells(column).Text

       ' UltraGridRow.GetCellText method returns the cell's value converted to text.
       Dim cellText2 As String = row.GetCellText(column)

       Debug.WriteLine("UltraGridCell.Value		= " & cellVal1.ToString())
       Debug.WriteLine("UltraGridRow.GetCellValue	= " & cellVal2.ToString())
       Debug.WriteLine("UltraGridCell.Text         = " & cellText1)
       Debug.WriteLine("UltraGridRow.GetCellText	= " & cellText2)

   End Sub
