Displaying an icon in a DataGrid's RowHeader?

Hi folks,

I'd like to notify the user that rows within a datagrid require
user-interaction/processing.
The RowHeader is visible and wide enough so that the exclamation-mark icon
as i.e. the ErrorProvider-control displays it would fit in neatly.
Is there a way of using the ErrorProvider-control directly or else is there
a way of displaying icon in a DataGrid's RowHeaders?

Cheers & TIA,
Olaf

Hi,

Here is a link on how to draw in the row header
http://64.78.52.104/FAQ/WinForms/FAQ_c44c.asp#q896q

You can also use the datarow.setcolu mnerror to display an error
message in the cell

thanks! When I searched through that FAQ I didn't use "RowHeader" as
search-string hence I didn't find it. Just came back here to post the
solution which you already did. :-)

Thanks, that's nice to know as well!

Hey, Having somewhat of an issue, I have a datagrid which is giving me issues.

My question is this, is there anyway I can setup the datagrid so when the user clicks on any cell, the whole row is selected not just that...

Is it possible (and how?) to get the data grid column name based on the DataGrid.CurrentCell? The DataGrid has assigned a TableStyle comprising selected columns (DataGridTextBoxColumn) from the source DataTable (DataGrid.DataSource=DataTable). I would like to be able to get the column name of the datagrid based on the DataGrid current cell so I can reference the appropriate column in the source DataTable.

I have a DataGrid control for which I have also created several new extended DataGridColumnStyles. They behave pretty nicely, but I can't figure out how to implement Selected Item formatting for them. In a plain vanilla DataGrid, when you click on the RowHeader, the appropriate row changes colors. I ASSUME this should be done in the Paint (or PaintText) override of the DataGridColumnStyle in question. My problem is that I don't know...
