Good Day

I have created a Form with a Datagridview on it. I want to Right click on a specefic heading on my Datagridview and it open a new form.

I have written the following code on the ColumnHeaderMouseClick Event on the Datagridview.

C#

private void dtgAllIngdetTerminals_ColumnHeaderMouseClick(object sender, DataGridViewCellMouseEventArgs e)
     {
         if (e.Button == MouseButtons.Right)
         {
if (dtgAllIngdetTerminals.Columns["TerminalID"].HeaderText == "TerminalID")
             {
                 frmFilter frmthree = new frmFilter();
                 frmthree.ShowDialog();
             }
             }
         }

At the moment, when I right click on any heading in the DatagridView it is opening a new form. Any suggestions where my code is incorrect?

You said: "... it must go to a new Form."
And "... it is opening a new form"

Ok, What's the problem?
Please improve your question to be more clear.

The problem what I have is, when I right click any heading on my Datageidviews it is going to a new form. I want to right click on specefic headings on my datagridview and then it must go to a new form. The problem is not going to a new form, the problem is, I want to right click on specefic headings on my datagridview and just those specefic headings must be able to go to a new form. Not every heading that I right clicked must go to a new Form.

Replace

C#

if (dtgAllIngdetTerminals.Columns["TerminalID"].HeaderText == "TerminalID")

with

C#

if (dtgAllIngdetTerminals.Columns["TerminalID"].Index == e.ColumnIndex)
