setting Column width of Template Column in Datagrid..

Charleees

Hi all,

I have a DataGrid with Template Columns.....

There are LAbels,Linkbutt ons in the Single Row..

I have to set the Constant Column width for those Template Columns in
Grid...

Wat actually happens is... when the Text size is too big... the column
also expands..

But wat actually should happen is ,

The text should wrap within the Column Width,,

I have set the Wrap and Column width Property of The Template Column of
the Grid ...

But it was not working...

The GRid goes as follows..
<asp:datagrid id="DG_Live" runat="server" CssClass="DataG rid"
Width="100%" Height="100%" ItemStyle-BackColor="#EFF 7FF"
GridLines="None " AutoGenerateCol umns="False" HorizontalAlign ="Left"

You can try to make use of css rule table-layout:fixed. Put it in your
DataGrid css class.

For instance 4 columns, 10%, 20%, 30% and 40%...
