Tooltip in Datagrid cell?

I need to have a Tooltip on each Cell in a datagrid, I don't know how to do
this. I'm using Styles to the datagrid (Which I asume most people do since
you never need to show all the fields from the source).

The Cell I want a tooltip on is styled with a textboxcolumn and the TextBox
Object in that TextBox Column doesn't seem to have a property called
Tooltip.. so i'm sorta stranded here...

Best regards/

Lars,

Do you mean cell or column?

The first is impossible in my opinion, for the second I have a sample what
easily is to use however it works only in a selected cell. (I have to modify
it again when you need it, so let me know if that is what you want)

And winform of course.

A cell... since it's a textbox in the cell (using a style) i don't see why
it should be impossible...

Because it is known how many columns there are normaly but not how many
rows.

(Or you should add the tooltip from every item in your database as an extra
item. I think that it in that way can be done creating the same amount of
not visible columns and than use those)

Hi Ken,

I did not know that hittestinfo, that makes things again a lot simpler.

Thanks

I have been looking for a way to reproduce the tooltip that Access displays when scrolling the Datagrid that shows the record count (changes as you move the thumb up or down). So far, nothing I have tried in the Datagrid's Scroll event (using a tooltip control) seems to work. Any ideas ? james

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,...
