I have an unbound datagridview that I populate with data. When the user clicks on the column head the datagridview is sorted - which is fine for alphabetic fields but I have a column that contains numeric fields and goes from -100 to +100. This is sorted incorrectly by the number (all the 1s first then all the 2s and so on, ignoring the minus sign). How do I get it to sort my column numerically?
View 9 RepliesI have a DataGridView that I am adding rows to manually. After adding rows & then sorting the cells seem to be sorted by string, E.g.
100

I have multiple columns with numbers available, is it possible to sort by Integer?
I am trying to sort text (File name and path), by having a listbox with just file name and and a datagridview with two columns filename and path.
The listbox sorts it differently from the datagridview. Mainly this is where there is a ' ie listbox puts "you're" before "you are" where the datagridview puts "you are" before "you're".
I thought I would just sort using datagridview and then read from datagrid and add to a non sorting listbox, but this did not work although the datagridview shows sorted, when you go through and a loop, reading each row to add to listbox they end up the same order they where originally put into the datagridview befrore sorting.
What I want is a sorted list of file names only, which will be obtained from several folders and then when clicked with be able to extract the complete path and filename.
I have code with a listbox and datagridview which works ok if I remove any files with ' in them.
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
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...

Let's say that I have a DataGridView(myDGV) which I populate as follows:
'...
Dim strSQL as String = "SELECT col1,col2,col3 FROM myTable"
'....
myda.Fill(myDtb)
myDGV.DataSource = myDtb.
'The above code fills the DGV with data from the underlying query
'of the DataTable.
'Supposing that I want to add an unbound Column to the end of the DGV which appears together with the data returned by the query, is it possibe?
I am populating a datagridview from a datatable and that is working fine. I wish to add some calculated columns from data in the datatable. At first, I did this by adding these to the table, but that makes it difficult to update the Access database. These lines are commented out.Right now, AWt and DOF are not working. The values are there when I step through (lines 85-87), but the values are not put in the grid. The value of NWt is placed in the grid as it should be.Lines 236 through 254 set up the new unbound columns. 85-87 should populate them.

I have a DataGridView bound to a binding source. I have also, however, added an unbound column in which I plan on putting numbers calculated from the bound columns. The problem is, Any time I edit my unbound column (on any row), the value doesn't stay. If I programmatically edit the values, they never show up. If I type in the cell, then upon hitting enter or clicking outside of the cell, whatever I typed disappears.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to put an unbound button in the last column in a DataGridView control and it appears way, way off to the right when I run the app. I have to scroll all the way to the right to get to the buttons and then manually resize them to show up the way I want them to. I am using the Edit Columns feature found in the Smart Tag of the control. It works ok when I place them anywhere else in the columns! It only messes up when I try to place them at the end of the columns.
View 1 RepliesI have a form and in that form is a datagridview listing information from a table in a database. The datagrid is setup as read only and the user is unable to move the columns around. The purpose of the datagrid is to allow the user to select entire records and press a menu button that does some action on them. To make it easier to use the very first column in an unbound data column that I fill with a number representing the row count so 1,2,3,4.... this makes it easier for the user to count how many rows he has selected.
The problem is that the unbound column moves to the last column in the datagrid at random times.This only happens in development not after the application has been deployed. Its annoying because lets say I go in to add a label or change a menu item on the form that has nothing to do with the datagrid I have to make sure that the unbound column hasn't moved.Has anyone else had this problem mixing bound and unbound columns in a datagridview.
I add several unbound columns to datagridview,i've succeeded to copy data from other datagridview to this unbound dgv and also got save database from unbound datagridview to database using tableadapter.insert worked .But i can't figure out how to display the data back into the datagridview with existing column..I've tried using this way :
Try
Dim cn As OleDbConnection = New OleDbConnection_
("Provider=SQLNCLI;Server=.SQLEXPRESS;Database=salon;Trusted_Connection=yes;")
cn.Open()

Apparently, an unbound datagridview control cannot be filled at design time, so I have to create rows + fill cells through code. Currently, I use the following type of code to refer to cells:

I'm trying to sort multple colums in the DataGridView which is unbound. I would prefer to sort by using a DataTable/DataView but for some reason another developer in my team experienced other problems relating to sorting so he abandoned using the DataTable to fill the grid :(
Here is the senario: I want the user to be able to choose which columns they want sort on. The way I envisaged was to show a form with a listbox, a grid and 3 buttons (Add to sort, Remove from sort and Apply Sort).
The list box would be populated from the parent form grid column headings.
The grid will show the columns and sort direction.
Button 1 would add the selected item of the list box to the grid.
Button 2 would remove from the grid the selected row.
Button 3 would Apply the Sort in the order of the grid and the columns SortDirection.
Now I looked at How to: Customize Sorting in the Windows Forms DataGridView Control using the IComparer [URL]
how I can use the IComparer to sort on multiple columns that a user has specified or another way to sort on multiple columns using unbound data.

Is there any possibility to sort multiple columns and group the data by a specific column..
I have a DataTable in a DataGridView, one of the columns has data that I want sorted. I can click on the column header to sort it and it's fine. The problem is that I don't want that column sorted automatically when some of the data changes in it. I want it sorted only when I click on the header.

after calling `GridView3.DataBind(), why do i still get Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. Parameter name: index.at this line of code GridView3.Columns(1).Visible = False yet the grid has rows and more than 2 columns. Note that the Gridview columns have NOT been defined at design time.
I have seen multiple examples on google and on these forums about how to do this. It seems there are two approaches:
1 - Add the column directly to the DGV and populate it
2 - Add the column to the underlying dataset

First form has 1 listbox and 2 buttons. Second form has 1 datagridview and 1 button. The first form opens the csv and list the location+filename of the CSV file. When the CSV files are listed in the listbox, the user can edit the selected csv file in listbox through edit button, when edit button is pressed, the second form will show as dialog and automatically opens the CSV files in DataGridView. The user will edit some fields and save and the second form will autoclose. Now here's the problem, when i select another CSV file in the listbox and press the edit button, the previous CSV still shows, even other CSV files I select, still the previous CSV file was showing.
