Hi, I have a small resolution to work to.
One column in the grid is normally empty, but if it has text the text is
long, so I want the column to be narrow but to be able to see a string that
could be around 100 characters long if need be.
My first thoughts are if I could have this cell to scroll (automatically
with no user interaction) then that will keep the column narrow but allow the
whole text to be displayed. I know to have text scrolling automatically, you
can use the Marquee element control (or you could... its a while since I used
it so I will have to check its still around) but I'm unsure how to use that
inside a cell in a gridview.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks.
