Answer 1

It looks like you can set SelectedIndex to -1 .

 gridView1.SelectedIndex = -1; 

Note. This must be done after each data binding to the GridView.

Answer 2

As SvDevMan81 noted, you should set the GridView's SelectedIndex property to -1.

Similarly, if you have an editable grid and want to return the grid to read-only mode, you can set the GridView's EditIndex to -1. A.
