VS 2010 DataGridView - Null Reference On Setting Column Width?
Jun 9, 2010
I have a databound DataGridView, and I'd like to keep one column in front, with a slightly smaller width than the default. The grid's AutoSizeColumnsMode property is set to Fill so that the columns fill out the entire grid. This makes the first column equally large as all others, which is why I need to set its width manually. The smaller column is the first one with the checkboxes. I have two grids that I need to do this with, and for some reason it works just fine with the first grid, but gives a null reference error on the second grid...
Here's the code for the first grid (working fine):
vb.net
Public Sub UpdateTodoGrid()
' Load todo items
todoGrid.DataSource = _TodoManager.LoadAll()
' Set backcolor
For Each row As DataGridViewRow In todoGrid.Rows
[Code] .....
As you can see, the code is exactly the same (except for not setting the BackColor of each row and not using the ReadOnly property*). When I run this code, it gives me a null reference error ("Object reference not set to an instance of an object.") on the line where I set the column's Width. Obviously 'col' is not Nothing (otherwise it would have errored before that line), and there's nothing else there that could be Nothing... I assume that something happens internally in the grid when you set the width of a column, and that there is a null reference there, but obviously I have no control over that.
The grid's are absolutely the same, as the second grid is just a 'copy' (meaning I copy/pasted it in the designer) of the first. So all their properties are equal. I thought maybe the ReadOnly properties were the problem, but I tried putting them in in the same way and the issue did not go away... The first grid is not ReadOnly (because the checkboxes need to be editable), but all rows except the first are, while the second grid is completely ReadOnly.

I'm using VB.Net 2008 application program. I'm using DataGridView. I have a Print option where I need to print the DataGridView. I'm using this code for Printing and for Print Preview.
Dim MyDataGridViewPrinter As DataGridViewPrinter
Private Function SetupThePrinting() As Boolean
Dim MyPrintDialog As PrintDialog = New PrintDialog()
MyPrintDialog.AllowCurrentPage = False
MyPrintDialog.AllowPrintToFile = False
[Code] .....
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. How I can "Text Wrap" the top header column and lock in the width to print across one page.

What I am trying to do is fill the contents of the datagridview with the cell contents. There are two ways to do this.
1) Either set the DGV width to the cell contents width, or
2) Autoadjust the width of the cells to the width of the DGV.
how to implement either of these two approaches?

I have several forms that have a DataGridView object in them. I recently discovered the AllowUserToOrderColumns attribute. I set it to true and I can reorder the columns at will. The problem is that the order for these columns is lost once the form is closed. Ok, how do you save the order for these columns and then restore them to the form once it has been reopened?

I need to redraw a button in a button column in a DataGridView. Nothing to complicated other than I do not want the width to be as wide as the column width. To do so I am assuming that I have to create a custom button column object which inherits from the ButtonColum. Then I am assuming that I have to over-ride the Draw of the buttton itself.

I have a fairly simple piece of code:
Private _PurchaseDelivery as PurchaseDelivery
Protected Overrides Sub InsertItem(ByVal index As Integer, ByVal item As PurchaseDeliveryItem)
[Code]....
Which is inside a class which overrides a custom list base. The code is occassionaly throwing an unhandled exception, System.NullReferenceException, on this line when used in production:
If _PurchaseDelivery IsNot Nothing AndAlso _PurchaseDelivery.DefaultSKUBinID.HasValue Then
DeafultSKUBinID is declared as an Integer? (Nullable Int) in the PurchaseDelivery class. I cannot see what might be causing this error, why would this be returning an error?

I am trying to pull data from a cell in the currently selected row in a DataGridView control. I fill the control with data from a SQL database through a dataset.I am trying to retrieve the index of the currently selected row so that I can pull the data out of the first cell in that row. Here is the code I currently have:
Dim i As Integer i = dgvSchedule.CurrentRow.Index MsgBox(dgvSchedule.Item(0, i).Value)Seems pretty simple to me, but for some reason I am receiving a "NullReferenceException, Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error on the second line.

I have tried everything and read everything and I still can't set the height and width of a document? It always boils down to setting the kind to "Custom", however the
Dim psize As Printing.PaperSize
psize.Kind = PaperKind.Custom
always fails on property 'Kind' is read only.
Then of course the line psize.height = 200 always aborts because 'Kind is not set to custom'.

I have a stack panel with 10 borders in it. the application performs the following operations:
1) it takes the last border and set its width = 0
2) It remove the border form the last position and it inserts this border in the first position
3) Once is in the first position a double animation increases its width to 50
No it works well for 10 times then it become impossible to set the width of the border to 50, it stay to 0. It looks like when you run a double animation the width property becomes blocked and you can not change it. Is there a way to unblock it?

When I put a break point to the last if clause in the sub ("If (backOrder < 0) Then", see below) it runs until the break point, if I put the break point further below, I get the following error:
Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'OrderID', table 'WHM.dbo.OrderDetails'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails. The statement has been terminated.
I've discovered first hand that it only happens when prodqty is bigger then qtyOnStock, thus executing the if clause.
