If the specified column does not belong to the current view, this method will try to find a column within the current View whose field name matches the field name of the specified column and then its value will be returned. If no such column is found, this method will return null.
If a group row is focused this method also returns null.
The currently focused row is determined by the ColumnView.FocusedRowHandle property.
To get the edit value within the currently focused cell, the ColumnView.GetFocusedValue method can be used. The ColumnView.GetRowCellValue method can be used to get the values of any column in any row.
The following methods can be used to get the displayed values of specific cells: ColumnView.GetFocusedDisplayText, ColumnView.GetFocusedRowCellDisplayText and ColumnView.GetRowCellDisplayText.
Note
Detail pattern Views do not contain data and they are never displayed within XtraGrid. So, the GetFocusedRowCellValue member must not be invoked for these Views. The GetFocusedRowCellValue member can only be used with Views that display real data within the Grid Control. Use the following methods to access these Views with which an end user interacts at runtime.
The following code snippet (auto-collected from DevExpress Examples) contains a reference to the GetFocusedRowCellValue(GridColumn) method.

The algorithm used to collect these code examples remains a work in progress. Accordingly, the links and snippets below may produce inaccurate results. If you encounter an issue with code examples below, please use the feedback form on this page to report the issue.
