Wordwrap DataGrid Columns

Hi there, I create a report online with basically a dump of loads of tables.
One of them has 27 columns and as such it ignores the datagrid.width property
and goes right along the screen in a landscape fashion. the users want to
print out in portrait however and i cant work out how to tell .net to
wordwrap at column no. x ??

Any ideas? I can query how many columns there are but cant seem to get into
the datagrid at the point of this column and put in a <br> ..?

The DataGrid allows you to make columns visible or invisible on demand - even edit and other special columns. This article will show you how it is done. Some developers have reported problems controlling the visibility of columns in the DataGrid control. The problem usually comes down to one fact. The DataGrid has a property called AutoGenerateColumns. The default value is "True". This means that when AutoGenerateColumns is set to True,...

Trying to figure out the technique which should be used to add rows to a datagrid. I am thinking that I would want an "Add" button on the footer, but I am not quite sure how to do that. Is that the best method? Do you have a sample of how to do this?

I have been trying for the last two weeks to display a dynamic DataGrid. The data that I'm pulling from a SQL Server DB will have whole columns that will be either NULL or 0. I want to display only the fields that have actual data in them and either not display or hide the columns that have NULL or 0 values. As an example, one page may need to display a total of 5 columns and another page may need to display three columns based on the...

Hi! I'm using a DataGridView to show a datatable that have many columns. When it displays data, the lines are applying wordwrap in some cells, because the grid is too wider to page. I'm wanting to do that DataGrid cells always show only one line of text, indepent of text size within it. It's possivel to do it? Ps: I set the RowStile.Wrap = False, but did not work.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
