I have a datagridviee with 8 columns. all the columns are generated programmingly. What i want is that, i want to fix the length as 6 of the 4 cells of the datagridview, remaining 4 will be readonly.
View 6 RepliesI am using a list<of T> as a data source for a datagridview and would like to handle the draw event of the datagridview to evaluate the string length of the column cell. If larger than a particular number then I would just do something like
cell.value = string.substring(0,(whatever number I need it to be)).

View 27 RepliesIs there a problem with changing the column length in table and using comboboxes that display a partial list of the records from that table.I had a column(Name) that was 18 chars long. I would then display only a subset of those names in a combobox by not listing records where a column called privileges was set to X. This and other uses of combobox worked fine till I increased the column length to 24. The combobox no longer filters on the privileges field though when I select the column priviliges after my selection it will display the value X.
View 1 RepliesAdd persistence to multible DataGridView in terms of Hide/Show column and column width
View 1 RepliesIt seems that on clicking datagridview column header, the column will be automatically sorted based on the column type. I have a column showing some numbers. If column type is string, it sorts "1","20","3" into "1","20","3". If column type is double, it sorts into "1","3","20" which is the result that I want. However, there might be some erros in the numbers and error messages(text) will show in the cell instead of numbers. So I cannot set the column type as double. I want to ignore these error messages and sort all the numbers. How can I do this?
Also, I need to add some background colors to different rows in datagridview. So in the column header click event, I call the bkgColor Sub to achieve this. My question is that how can I override the sorting method in this event?

Dim Comp = From C In db.Table1 _
Select C.Completed, C.Taken, C.Namne
Datagridview1.DataSource = Comp
Am using the Entity Framework and Columns Completed and Taken are of bit Datatype. When the query results are displayed in the datagridview, these bit columns are returned as of ColumnType Textbox - so i get a Datagridview textbox column with true or false string values.
I want to display Completed and Taken as Checkbox columns (either ticked for True or un-ticked for false) but ofcourse i can't do this in EditColumn dialogue because the Datagridview is unbound.
how can i change this in code at runtime
Is there a way to find the column index of a datagridview column using the columns DataPropertyName?I currently use a loop (shown below in the class) which is kind of ugly, but it works. I'd like to do something like this, which seems more elegant.My goal is this, I store the users DataGridView column settings (i.e. DisplayIndex, Visible, & Width).When the user opens the form that contains the datagridview I want to get those settings from the database and apply the settings to the datagridview.[code]

View 17 RepliesI have a DataGridView (dgv) on a Windows form (VB.NET) which is bound to a datatable. One of the bound columns is a an ID (Foreign Key) to another datatable. All I want to do is Hide the ID column and populate an unbound column with the Name (ParmName) for the user. I searched the foreign value in the datatable and retrieved the information. I set the Value of the cell in the Datarow. All works well, but does not display. The cell accepts the value...I can even Debug.Print the values to the console. They are there just nothing displaying in DataGridView. Nothing odd about DataGridView. Should be straight forward...

I have a datagridview (dgv) and if the user changes the size of a column or moves the column to the left or right, I want to be able to save those changes, so when the user sign's on again, the dgv will show as it was when the user closed out of it. Is there a way to do this?Also, is there a way to "freeze" columns? For example if I have 10 columns, I freeze column's 1 and 2 (to the left) so whenever the user scroll's over to the right, column's 1 and 2 will stay on the screen.
