How do I select a complete dataGridView Row when the user clicks a cell of that row?

Question

I have a dataGridView and I need that when the user clicks on any cell the whole row that contains this cell is selected too. (it has multiselect disbaled) I tried getting the currentRowIndex like this

 int Index = dataGridView1.CurrentCell.RowIndex;

However, I am not sure how to use the index in order to select that row. Tried this and about other six ways with no success:

dataGridView1.Select(Index);

Do you know a way I can do this?

You need to set datagridview's SelectionMode to FullRowMode.

Note: In Visual Studio 2013 with .NET 4.5 the property is called FullRowSelect, see https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/3c89df86(v=vs.110).aspx
