    Something is really not clear here.

    You have your ViewProfile button and your cartButton button so which one are you talking about exactly ?

    @SGaist 
    i have tried both but i commented the other piece  of code which is 
    for(int i=0; i<7 ; i++ ) {
     view->setIndexWidget(model->index(i,6), ViewProfile);
    }
    view->setmodel(model) ; 
    view->show() ;
    
    this is exactly what i've used in the second way .. for the first way i just forgot to edit the name of the button :) and i was gonna edit it if the code worked .. but i'll edit it right now .. and really appreciate your Responding
    

    pls in this line : / * in model->setData(item, QVariant::fromValue(view->show());

    is "View->show()" the right object here ?

      Hi
      first thing.

      for(int i=0; i<7 ; i++ ) {
       view->setIndexWidget(model->index(i,6), ViewProfile);
      }
      

      You cannot add same button to more than one cell. you have to create a new for each.

      so it would be

      for(int i=0; i<7 ; i++ ) {
       view->setIndexWidget(model->index(i,6), new QPushButton("ViewProfile"));
      }
      

      if you want a button in each cell.


      Then

      model->setData(item, QVariant::fromValue(view->show())
      

      you try to store what the result of a function call (show is function) but
      show() returns void so nothing to store.

      What are you trying to store there ?

        i did that right now also the button not included and this an image for the QTableView 
        and for this line :
              //  model->setData(item, QVariant::fromValue(MyObject.getSpecificInformation()));
        
        this line used with QSingleMapper so i don't know which object used with with that 
        this piece of code contains full code of QsingleMapper way 
        QSignalMapper *signalMapper = new QSignalMapper(this); [ QSignalMapper *signalMapper = new QSignalMapper(this);] 
        
        for( int i=0; i<7; i++ ) { //replace rows.length with your list or vector which consists of the data for your rows.
             //do something with your data for normal cells...         
             auto item = model->index(i, 6);
             model->setData(item, QVariant::fromValue(yourObject.getSpecificInformation()));
        
             //make new button for this row 
             item = model->index(i, 6); 
             QPushButton *ViewProfile = new QPushButton("ViewProfile");
            view->setIndexWidget(item, ViewProfile);
        
             signalMapper->setMapping(ViewProfile, i);
             connect(cartButton, SIGNAL(clicked(bool)), signalMapper, SLOT(map()));
        }
           connect(signalMapper, SIGNAL(mapped(int)), this, SLOT(on_pushButton_2_clicked()));

          Can you reproduce that situation with a minimal compilable example ?

            @SGaist

            this is the full function's code and for sorry the same result without printing the button and i got the code from StackOver Flow from this Answer "https://stackoverflow.com/a/36356873"
            and maybe this code doesn't work coz of this line : model->setData(item, QVariant::fromValue(yourObject.getSpecificInformation()));

            that i don't know which object should i replace here "yourObject.getSpecificInformation())" and if there any reliable solution would be better then .. and thank you for your efforts

            void MainProcess::on_pushButton_2_clicked()
            {
                QSqlDatabase  Databasee =   QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QMYSQL" , "thirdConnection");

              It is issue a with model not associated with view. Before associating model & view, you are trying to get the QModelIndex and setting the widget. You can't do this. index(model->index(i, 6);) what you are obtaining is from model which not associated with View. So move view->setModel before the for loop. Everything should work fine.

              You can look at the simple example at GIT

              connect(signalMapper, SIGNAL(mapped(int)), this, SLOT(on_pushButton_2_clicked()));
              

              What is the above method. It is calling same method again when you click it. Is that what you wanted to do ?

                it works sir thank you so much and i'll add the other parts to ViewProfile of patients .. but thing that i can't understand is why when i close QTableView it close the class itself which i click the button from it to execute the function of the button .. so to prevent that is there any solution except making another Header and Cpp files and execute Constructor in this function "void MainProcess::on_pushButton_2_clicked()
                "

                    Yes for sure ,
                    image

                    here there is a designer form class called MainProcess so there is a Method called void MainProcess::on_pushButton_2_clicked()
                    if clicked it bringing data from database and preview it in a QTableView so if closed the QTableView and closes the MainProcess Class too so what should i do to make it isolate and don't lose the class
                    note pls : this class shows after checking login .. and i do appreciate all of your efforts

                      Looking at you code, it should not close the mainwindow. It should just close the QTableView only. I can see that you are showing only view->show() ; view does not have parent. Just to reconfirm, can you show how are you creating the tableview and showing it ?

                        Here in this function if the login successed it will show another window that has process of the programe which have QTableModel as well .. and i initialized a pointer MainProcess * mainprocess .. so it shows the the other Qt Designer form if the login done , and just included QTable and QModelIndex and press the button to get all data from database when click the button in the method which is "void MainProcess::on_pushButton_2_clicked()
                        can't be sure if it has relation with our method which has the QTableModel

                          No it is nothing to do with this method. This has no relation to another slots. Have you looked at the example which I have given y'day ?

                            @dheerendra
                            yes for sure i've checked it and make it as yours (initialized QSqlTableModel and QTableView in the header file)

                            now i create another islolated header and cpp file and put the function i wanna do in them and also same problem that if i closed QTableView it closes the other class , it executes the function but also closes

                            this is the link of files on GitHub : https://github.com/MOSTAFAEZZAT/QTableViewProlem

                            Update : Sir this Problem is solved now it was because of initializing the next window by pointer not as usual object
                            i.e :

                            class MainWindow : public QMainWindow
                            {
                                
                            
                                Q_OBJECT
                            
                            public:
                                explicit MainWindow(QWidget *parent = nullptr);
                                ~MainWindow();
                            
                            private slots:
                                void on_pushButton_3_clicked();
                                void on_pushButton_4_clicked();
                                void on_pushButton_8_clicked();
                            
                            private:
                                Ui::MainWindow * ui;
                                MainProcess    mainprocess ;
                            
                            };
                            
                            

                            this is a piece of function which if the login done show the next Window else no

                              if(qry->exec())
                                        {
                                            if(qry->next())
                                            {
                                            model->setQuery(*qry);
                                            QString  S =  qry->value(0).toString() + "Login Successed ";
                                            QMessageBox::information(this,"Result",S) ;
                                            hide();
                                        //    mainprocess = new MainProcess(this) ;
                                            mainprocess.show();
                                            }
                                            else
                                                {
                                               QMessageBox::information(this,"Result","Sorry Try Again") ;
                                               qDebug() << qry->lastError();
                                                }
                            
                                          }
                            

                            so in previous
                            it was like that
                            MainProcess * mainprocess

                            but pls i just wanna know why it was destroying this window(MainProcess) if i closed QTableView .. And Thank you so much in Advance
