DataGridView: detecting column separator dragging

2 New Member
Hi there,

I'd like to detect when the user resizes a column on a DataGridView by dragging the separator situated between columns. There is the ColumnWidthChan ged event, but I can't find a way of distinguishing whether this was the result of the user dragging the separator, or one of the many other programmatic causes (columns being added/removed, my own auto-resizing code etc.).

Any ideas?

Many thanks in advance,
Hugh

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...

As your probably aware the datagridview doesn't update it's source datatable with changes to a cell until you move off that cell. Suppose somone makes a change in a cell of my datagridview then clicks to go elsewhere in the program--how can I be assured that change is transmitted back to the source datatable?

I am wondering what is considered a best practice for setting column widths to fit the data for a DataGridView (.Net 2.0) that was created on-the-fly from an arbitrary query. What I would probably do is scan the width of each column for the first couple hundred or so rows and find the largest. (But how does one convert character counts to field widths in pixels?) More generally, however, is there a better approach to accomplish this?
