How to extend Datagrid's column-header height?

I'm trying to extend the Height of Windows.Forms Datagrid's column headers.
Is it possible to allow wrapping of text in the header column cells along
with making the height larger?

This solution is strange. But it's working on my end. I'm using the first
release of VB.net, so I don't know if they have "corrected" this strangeness,
that, in this case, happens to work in your favor.

Set the datagrid's header font to a larger value, say 24.

Strangely, the header height gets large enough to accomodate that font size,
but the font size stays the same.

Then concatenate controlchars.cr lf into the header text where you want the
breaks.

Hello, I have a datagrid and one column shows a lot of information. The text in that column is automatically cut of sometimes and I don't want that to happen. I would like to know if it is possible to increase the number of characters that can be displayed in a template column. Greetings, Christian.

G'day, After doing much searching and pinching bits of ideas from here there and everywhere I came up with a fairly 'clean' solution of including a comboBox into a dataGrid column.

Hi, In a running C# app with a datagrid control I select all rows in the dataGrid using CTRL-A, I then paste into some other app like notepad or Word but the column headings get left off. Is there any way of including column headings when copying/pasting from a running datagrid to notepad? At this stage it looks like I have to write my own code but would rather not if someone knows how to do it.

I have a datagrid that I want to add a new column to. This column will only be visible under certain conditions. So I want to set the column visible=false. Then when the right condition happens to change it to visible=true. You can't do that with a bound column (no ID), but you can create a templatecolumn with a label. To make these visible, I am going through each datagriditem and making them visible after I have bound the data to...

I am stuck on trying to generate two columns headers for a datagrid on form load. I can use a datatable as the datasource and get the results I want, but I want to set different column widths and don't see a way to do this through the datagrid properties. I am not using a database connection, I just want to set column headers on the datagrid. I am somewhat new to vb.net. Here is the code I am using. This code works when the...

Hello, Please pardon my ignorance as I'm sure this is easy to do. I have a datagrid where I want to let the user delete columns. I added a context menu to the datagrid that has a delete option. If the user right clicks on a column heading can I highlight that column and then delete it? I'm not exactly sure how to highlight it or figure out what column has been clicked. In my testing so far when I use the context menu I always get the...
