Very flexible grid for ASP.NET

Marc Scheuner

Folks,

I have a project at hand where I'll need a really flexible grid for
ASP.NET. The standard row/column model doesn't cut it - I need to
specifically be able to tell each individual cell what kind of cell it
is (e.g. showing text, rendering an image etc.).

Most standard grids will allow you to define your own grid column
types - but that's not sufficient for my case here.

Does anyone know of a ready-made grid out there that will allow me to
specify on a cell-by-cell basis what kind of cell it is (and how to
render itself) ??

If not: has anyone tackled that problem before and come up with a
solution based on the standard ASP.NET GridView control??

Thanks for any hints and pointers !
Marc

Hi,,

First of all asp.net grid view have this facility if you think
carefully...
in item databound you can modity the style of each cell .... depending
on your need...

Other famouse asp.net thirdparty grid's are ...
telerik (http://www.telerik.com/) asp.net rad grid...
,Component Art (http://www.componentart.com/) asp.net grid
and
Infragistics asp.net grid is good

Best of luck

You can make the grid out of template columns, include in the templates
whatever controls you will need and hide and show individual controls
programmaticall y in RowDataBound event depending on the actual data.

Very Simple DataGrid Question

I have a very simple datagrid, with an edit button that I added in PropertyBuilder. This fires the EditCommand event just fine and I show a panel where the user can edit certain fields. I have a button to save the changes. Within that button, I refer to dataGrid1.EditItemIndex and it's returning -1. Isn't this property set when I click on the edit button within the grid?

I thought (as they're in c99) that flexible arrays were there for a number of reasons - but I also thought they'd be great for stepping into structures (say) that were aligned in memory after (say) a header struct, e.g.: struct element { int a; int b; };

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,...
