DataGridView that shows multiple lines per record?

I use DataGridViews for the detail part of lots of Master/Detail entry forms.

This time I need the user to see a dozen fields all at once for each detail
record, and the best way to do this would be to show two or three lines of
controls for each record (not just scroll off to the right).

Can I get the DataGridView to allow multiple rows per record, or is there
some other control I should use?

Hi, I'm using the DataGridView in VB.NET 2.0. The DataSource is a Generic List of a custom class0: lstMyPersonnes = New List(Of clsPersonne). When I add a new clsPersonne to lstMyPersonnes, and rebind the lstMyPersonnes to my DataGridView.dataSource, it shows the new record in the DataGridView as it should be. But when I click on a cell of that row, I suddenly got this error: "Index -1

Hey everyone, I know this has to be simple, but can't figure out how to do it. How can I display the grid lines in all rows in the gird. The default behavior of the DataGridView seems to be that it only shows grid lines around rows that have data in it. If there are not enough rows to fill the height of the grid, then the grid lines don't show up around the "empty rows" I say "empty rows" because there actually a row there. So it seems...

I'm working on reading data from a spreadsheet and outputing it into a datagridview in a windows form (.net 2.0). The problem I've found is that I'm getting 84 rows where only one cell is populated, instead of 7 rows with with 12 cells populated. I think the problem is that I don't understand how to use an ArrayList properly, or I need to use a more appropriate collection... but then again it could be something completely different. The...

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 3 related tables in a DataSet - Customers, Products and Orders. I am trying to create an "editable" DataGridView which, ideally, will contain columns from all the tables. I have tried creating the joins in the TableAdapter SQL, but this results in a read-only data grid. Customers and Orders are joined in a 1:M relationship by CUSTID. Products and Orders are joined in a 1:M relationship by PRDID. When the user adds a new...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

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,...
