I need to determine the number of rows and columns in a DataGrid.
This knowledge base article also answers the following questions:
- How can I find out how many rows are in my DataGrid?

- Can I programmatically retrieve row and column counts in DataGrid?
Solution
To retrieve the number of rows and columns in a DataGrid for MAUI, follow the steps below:
1. Obtain the number of rows. The DataGrid generates rows based on the count of items in the collection bound to the ItemsSource property. Use the following code to get the number of rows:
var rowNumber = (this.dataGrid.ItemsSource as ObservableCollection<FilesData>).Count.ToString();
2. Obtain the number of columns. The DataGrid exposes a Columns collection. Access this collection to get the amount of columns:
var columnNumber = this.dataGrid.Columns.Count.ToString();
These snippets give the total number of rows and columns in the DataGrid.
