Re: DataGridView: Need to make Enter key create newline in textbox

to this newline when an enter key is detected.
>
My question (finally!) is if this is a sound solution? It works, but
feels "hacky" to me and I suspect I may be missing a more elegant solution.

Anyone have any ideas?
Update: I tried adding this code:
<code>
public PMDDataGridView TextBoxEditingC ontrol()
:base()
{
this.Multiline = true;
}
</code>

This has no effect, I still need to insert the Environment.New Line
characters.

It's strange, DataGridViewTex tBoxEditingCont rol derives from TextBox,
I'm not clear where the different behavior is being introduced. In
other words, if I create a multiline TextBox control I can press enter
and get a newline, so why with this DGV control is the behavior different?

I add a user control (a simple textbox control) to customize datagridview column to test how to add user control to datagridview. I found a weired behavior. I can not input "q", "!", "#".

I have a DataGridView which displays numeric (Int32) data from an underlying database. I want the numbers to be displayed in numeric format "#,###" (with commas). I want to also limit the user so they can only input numerical values. Is there any way to do this? Currently my formatting works but if the user enters a value manually the formatting is not applied to the new value. Also I haven't found a way to allow only numerical input....

Hi All :) I'm converting VB6 using True DBGrid Pro 8.0 to VB2005 using DataGridView. True DBGrid has a MultipleLines property that controls whether individual records span multiple lines. Is there an equivalent property for the DataGridView? I have searched, but have not found one. I would like the user to be able to see all the columns of the table on one screen - thus eliminating the need to use the horizontal scroll bar to view...

I have a DataGridView bound to a collection of Custom Objects. I have enabled adding new rows, but since my object does not have a public constructor (it uses a factory method), I get an error when I attempt to enter the new row. My guess is that I need to override some method so that I can create the object for the grid. But for the life of me, and I can't find it. Can someone point me in the right direction? -- Terry

My current headache is proper is with the datagridview I am starting to realize that a DataGridView within vs2008 is not as 'robust' as a 'textboxfield' by default for example. Example: A Textbox field can have masking, you can add easy validation and so on. Just adding a dummy datagridview to a form, databounding it, and allowing editing works - but is not dummy proof.

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,...
