I have a script that shows cells with various values. If a cell has the value '0' then it should not be possible to select the entire row.

Here, the rows with the numbers 10, 11 and 13 should not be able to select.

I have the following script:

Function GenerateDataGrid
{
 
 For($Index = 1; $Index -le 30; $Index  )
  {

   $Record = [ordered]@{
    Follow = $Index
    Number = Random(0..5)
    }
    $Global:Table  = New-Object 'PSObject' -Property $Record
  }

  $dgvTest.DataSource = [System.Collections.ArrayList]$Global:Table
  $dgvTest.SelectAll()
  $Rows = $dgvTest.SelectedRows
  ForEach ($Row in $Rows)
   {
    if($dgvTest.Rows[$Row.Index].Cells['Number'].Value -eq 0)
     {
      # $dgvTest.Rows[$Row.Index].Readonly = $True    -> Does not work
      # $dgvTest.Rows[$Row.Index].Locked = $True      -> Throws up an error
      # $dgvTest.Rows[$Row.Index].Enabled = $False    -> Throws up an error
      $dgvTest.Rows[$Row.Index].DefaultCellStyle.BackColor = [System.Drawing.Color]::FromArgb(255, 224, 224, 224)
     }
   }
  $dgvTest.ClearSelection()
}

Function ShowResults
{
 $Rows = $dgvTest.SelectedRows
 Clear-Host
 ForEach ($Row in $Rows)
  {
   $Follow = $dgvTest.Rows[$Row.Index].Cells['Follow'].Value
   $Number = $dgvTest.Rows[$Row.Index].Cells['Number'].Value
   Write-Host "$Follow $Number"
  }     
}

$Global:Table = @()

[void]$frmDataGridTest.Dispose()

What can I do to make it possible that a user cannot select the rows with the numbers 10, 11 and 13?

Feedback is appreciated a lot.

With kind regards, The Sting Pilot

You were almost there, but you need to handle the grid's SelectionChanged event.

Add this event handler:

$dgvTest.Add_SelectionChanged({
  ForEach ($Row in $dgvTest.SelectedRows){
      $Row.Selected = ($Row.Cells['Number'].Value -ne 0)
  }
})
