Hi,
Here is a column style that i wrote that allows you set set max
length and character casing. Use it instead of a datagridtextbox column in
your datagrid tablestyle.
Imports System.Drawing
Imports System.Drawing. Drawing2D
Imports System.Windows. Forms
Imports System.Componen tModel
<DataSysDescrip tion("This column style adds Max length and Character Casing
to the datagrid textbox column")> _
Public Class ExtendedTextBox Column
Inherits DataGridTextBox Column
Dim mccText As CharacterCasing = CharacterCasing .Normal
Dim mintMaxLength As Integer = 0
<DataSysDescrip tion("Upper, Lower, or Normal")> _
Public Property TextCharacterCa sing() As CharacterCasing
Get
Return mccText
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As CharacterCasing )
mccText = Value
End Set
End Property
<DataSysDescrip tion("Max Length of Text. Use 0 to retrieve full text")> _
Public Property MaxLength() As Integer
Get
Return mintMaxLength
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As Integer)
mintMaxLength = Value
End Set
End Property
Protected Overloads Overrides Sub Edit(ByVal source As
System.Windows. Forms.CurrencyM anager, ByVal rowNum As Integer, ByVal bounds
As System.Drawing. Rectangle, ByVal [readOnly] As Boolean, ByVal instantText
As String, ByVal cellIsVisible As Boolean)
MyBase.Edit(sou rce, rowNum, bounds, [readOnly], instantText, cellIsVisible)
MyBase.TextBox. CharacterCasing = mccText
If mintMaxLength > 0 Then MyBase.TextBox. MaxLength = mintMaxLength
End Sub
Protected Overrides Function GetColumnValueA tRow(ByVal source As
System.Windows. Forms.CurrencyM anager, ByVal rowNum As Integer) As Object
Dim obj As String
Dim strReturn As String
obj = MyBase.GetColum nValueAtRow(sou rce, rowNum).ToStrin g
Select Case mccText
Case CharacterCasing .Lower
strReturn = obj.ToLower
Case CharacterCasing .Upper
strReturn = obj.ToUpper
Case CharacterCasing .Normal
strReturn = obj
End Select
If mintMaxLength > 0 And strReturn.Lengt h > mintMaxLength Then
strReturn = strReturn.Subst ring(0, mintMaxLength)
End If
Return strReturn
End Function
End Class

Hi,
I am using my code to set column widths of datagrid
columns dynamically, but when I am setting the column
widths to zero, the header text of the column whose width
is made to zero is appearing on the existing column
headers, and the text gets blurred with the painting of
the column text along with the adjacent width 0 column.
Anybody, can you please give me a solution for it

Hi, I'm wondering how can i change the datagrid header text at runtime so
that it keeps the sorting enabled?
I can do;
e.Item.Cells.Text = "foo";
But then foo is the text of the table cell and not the underlying hyperlink
and as such, foo is no longer sortable.

I am iterating through the dataitems in a datagrid and producing and xml

If a particular cell in the datagrid has a textbox control or a datagrid

however when the datagrid cell contains no control, but does contain text,
then I am having great trouble accessing its value.
