These are the settings used for the RowHeaderDefaultCellStyle:
aGrid.RowHeadersDefaultCellStyle.Alignment = DataGridViewContentAlignment.MiddleRight
aGrid.RowHeadersDefaultCellStyle.BackColor = Color.DarkGray

I have a DataGridView with one column, I set for that column
DefaultcelStyle->Wrapmode=True
Modify data a with a long string, I call also
vb.net
DataGridView1.AutoResizeRows()
DataGridView1.Refresh()
But the DataGridView doesn't refresh wrap,il looks like this : I change manually current selected row moving to another record and now the refresh is done :
I have a client app written in Visual Basic (Visual Studio 2008). The text is wrapping around to the next line when the tooltip displays on the form. Can I draw the rectangle wider?

e.Graphics.FillRectangle(Brushes.AliceBlue, e.Bounds)

I'm working in VB.Net w/ WPF and I need to create a DataGrid at run-time (in the code-behind) with the text in each grid cell able to wrap. I've found a lot of examples showing how to do this in the XML but I can't find anything explaining how this is done in the code-behind. I'm stuck trying to figure out how the DataGridTemplateColumn, CellTemplate, and DataTemplate all work together.
<DataGridTemplateColumn>
<DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
<DataTemplate>

I think the problem is with the binding and the textblock property. Something like this would make more sense but it doesn't work...
Dim b1 As New Binding("Wrap")
factory1.SetValue(TextBlock.TextWrapping, b1)
When i am receiving server responses some are to long for the RTB so obviously continue on the next line. Each line is time stamped. If the word is to long it looks as follows:
15:00 this is a long
message
15:01 another message and so on
what i would like is for the new line to be indented to under the text above so it does not wrap directly under the time stamp. [Code]
I have some lines of text in a listbox that I need to format. The text originally looks like this (on one line):

I need to format it (if it's more than 13 names), then add it to another list looking like this:
NET 'GND' R1-2 R2-2 R3-2 R4-2 R5-2 R6-2 R7-2 R8-2 L1-2 L1-3 L1-4 L1-5 L1-6 L1-7

If I want to do a if-statement, wich one is the most correct way?[code]Of course, both will work but to me, the second way looks more correct. I feel that it's much easier to understand what's actually going on, especially if there are several expressions to be evaluated. But my guess is that there is no difference in preformance, or am I wrong?

View 1 RepliesHere is what we've been trying to do.
We have a button that loads up a form. It opens up a form and there is a Table. Its the history table. Well, the way this table is loaded is we run a function known as HistoryTableSelectSubset. Now, this has worked very fine! Not a problem.
This is our problem. We want three columns in this table. First, QueryDate (WORKS!). Second, SQL (WORKS!). Third, MYNEWCOLUMN (Fail). What we want in this third column is basically the SQL column but with it all word wrapped.
So, instead of seeing only the first line of the SQL on the table if it is written like this:

View 14 RepliesI attached a screenshot of my IRIS program and am wanting to implement a new feature, but I'm not sure how to do it. On the left hand side, you can see I have a bound datagridview control that displays a device name and an IP Address from a table in a database.What I want to do is have the option to launch a new form that has ALL the devices visible (including their state: green or red) and based on the size of the form, be able to auto-wrap to a new column.[code]So basically, instead of being able to only see the devices in the DGV on the left as it is scanning, I want to be able to see ALL of the devices in multiple columns in a new form. I looked on codeproject for a custom control to do this, but didn't really find anything.

I have a dictionary (literally) database file in Access: its Fields are Headword (string) and Definition (Memo, it's in Rich Text). The Rich text looks fine in Access, but when I connect a Visual Basic (2008) Datagridview control to the database, the text looks like HTML, not RTF, and when I try to copy a specified "definition" into a RichtextBox, I get the same weird symbols, not RTF. One attached snapshot is how a record looks in Access, the other in a VB 2008 form with a datagridview control and an attempt to paste contents into a RichTextBox.
How can I get that same "look" from the RTF in the original Access file? I'm only recently moving from VB6; not a professional
how could I get the text of a specific cell in a DataGridView control ? If it matters , in my case , all the cells contain strings or nothing . For example , in order to get the text from the cell on row 2 and column 3 , what code do I have to use ? I have tried the Value property but seems that's not it . I've found some examples on the web ,but they were all for C# ... I guess , though , it has to be easy .

Is there a way to programmatically send information from a text box into specific columns in a DataGridView? I tried
vb.net
Column1.Text = TextBox1.Text
and it obviously does not work.
I want to be able to have a dozen or so text boxes be emptied into separate columns in a row of a datagridview. This way the text boxes can be cleared and have new values entered then save the new values as a second row in the datagridview. This is so my VB gui which which runs everything through an old cmd line program, can do batches instead of one run at a time.
The problem is I have absolutely no idea how datagridview works. I've tried searching google and only found some vague things and stuff about databases. I also tried the MSDN library and that was of no help either, couldn't find anything on simply adding stuff and if I had it'd probably be to complicated to be of use to me.

Attached the class i'm using for print.I have 10 fields showing in datagridview. As the last 5 columns header is long, the datagridview is not fitting inside 1 page (not showing all 10 fields in one single page). But is there a way i can "Text Wrap" the top header column and lock in the width, then it should print across one page perfectly.If you know how i can "Text Wrap" the top header column and lock in the width to print across one page?

I agree that for domain model code that using the "traditional" unit testing approach makes the most sense as this would lead to a design that is easiest to maintain. However, for code that deals with the .net implementation of Windows API related stuff (file system, services, etc), is there really an advantage to going thru the extra work to get "traditionally" testable code?
It's hard for me to see the disadvantages of using Microsoft Moles for things such as ServiceController (or the File object). I really don't see any advantage of doing the traditional approach in this case.
I 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...
