I would like to set the width on 2 columns of a asp.net gridview control, but
I'm having trouble making this work. Here is the code I use to create the
gridview:
'Create a new data table
m_dsTable = New Data.DataTable
m_dsTable.Colum ns.Add("Name", System.Type.Get Type("System.St ring"), "")
m_dsTable.Colum ns.Add("URL", System.Type.Get Type("System.St ring"), "")
'Add two new command fields to select and delete
Dim pFld As New CommandField
pFld.ShowSelect Button = True
pFld.ButtonType = ButtonType.Imag e
GridView1.Colum ns.Add(pFld)
Dim pFld1 As New CommandField
pFld1.ShowDelet eButton = True
pFld1.ButtonTyp e = ButtonType.Imag e
GridView1.Colum ns.Add(pFld1)
'Set the gridview datasource and bind the data
GridView1.DataS ource = m_dsTable
GridView1.DataB ind()
'Set the width of the command fields
GridView1.Colum ns(0).ItemStyle .Width = 5
GridView1.Colum ns(1).ItemStyle .Width = 5
After binding the table to the gridview, I have two fields that were created
in the datatable, Name and URL which I need to set the width on. I have tried
all number of ways to do so and nothing works. For some reason, I cannot
reference these columns with gridview1.colum ns(0).itemstyle .width. When I do
a count on the number of columns there are only 2 (only the command fields
are identified). Also, I have tried using the RowCreated event to cycle
through the cells and set the widths explicitly as follows:
Protected Sub GridView1_RowCr eated(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Web.UI.W ebControls.Grid ViewRowEventArg s) Handles GridView1.RowCr eated
'Purpose: Set the column widths
If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowT ype.DataRow Then
Dim td As TableCell
For Each td In e.Row.Cells
td.Width = 10
td.Wrap = True
Next
End If
End Sub
....and nothing happens in the gridview.
Any suggestions? I'm out of ideas.
Thanks! 3 17526

There was no way for you to know it (except maybe by browsing through some
of the previous questions in this newsgroup before posting yours - always a
recommended practice) , but this is a classic asp newsgroup. ASP.Net bears
very little resemblance to classic ASP so, while you may be lucky enough to
find a dotnet-knowledgeable person here who can answer your question, you
can eliminate the luck factor by posting your question to a group where
those dotnet-knowledgeable people hang out. I suggest
microsoft.publi c.dotnet.framew ork.aspnet.

Please reply to the newsgroup. This email account is my spam trap so I
don't check it very often. If you must reply off-line, then remove the

set it in the properties of the grid view or you can also set it in the
RowDatabound() method as well.
e.item.cell[2].width = 100;
e.item.cell[3].width = 100;
something like that.

can you fix this line
e.item.cell[2].width = 100;
like this
e.item.cell[2].width.Value = 100;

I have difficulties adjusting the column width of a gridview control.
The column width changes appear in the design grid, but at run-time the
width changes back to what I presume are the grid's default settings.
Idem for the pager settings: the page settings are spread over the grid
width (justified) instead of being grouped on the left hand side. I
tried changing various settings and adding some CSS to no avail.
Thanks for any...

I have a Gridview binding to a DataTable source. I'd like to set the

when AutoGenerateColumns=true, they do not appear in the columns

I modified the RowCreated even to gridview, and I can change
properties on the cells, but not width. (setting tooltip, background

Hi, I am having a bit of trouble with my gridview table and the width of the
columns.
The gridview is made of Templates that contain LinkButton controls. The
LinkButtons will display a string based on their "text" property.
I have set a width for the Linkbutton control, and I am also using CSS to
set style word-wrap:break-word so that if there is a long string it will
break the word and wrap it. This works fine, however the column-width...
