I am using a datagrid to display some data. I notice when
I click in a cell where the data is longer than the cell
width, it truncates the end of the data off.
For example:
The data is:
This is sample data
Column only has room for:
This is sample da
When I click in the cell, it changes to:
This is sample
When I leave the cell, it changes back to:
This is sample da
Is this a property of the DataGridTableStyle? Can I fix it
so that when I click in the cell, all the data is there if
I right arrow over? Thanks.

Erm, this is a thorny issue. Basically there is no AutoWidth facility. You
need to measure the text you have in there and set the column width to be
wide enough to display it. It's cr*p I know.
But, there are third party grids out there which do this sort of thing.

Mr.Ken Tucker taught about allowing word wrap to occur inside a cell. Since
doing this, I have not had these issues.
If he does not respond I will see if I can dig it up from memory.

Useful, yes, but this is not the answer really is it. If you were using a
spreadsheet, you would not necessarily want wrapping to happen. The OP wants
truncation to stop, not wrapping to begin. ( At least I think as much ).

I am wondering if the truncation is occuring at the database level or if
somehow the code iteself is truncating the data. For instance if the dataset
field has a max of 50 chararacters and the database has a max of 100 the
grid will cut off the 50 the database tries to deliver.
I may be wrong though because now that I think about it it should throw a
concurrency error.

The data is correct in the database. The truncation seems
to be to the nearest full word at the physical level, and
only while the cell is selected.
For example, If my data was:
Alpha ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
And only this much fits physically in the grid cell:
Alpha ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVW
When I click in the cell I get:
Alpha
And when I click off again I get:
Alpha ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVW -----Original Message-----

The reason for this is that when you edit a cell, it puts an edit box over
the cell you are editing. When you are not, it resorts to the column width.
You need to use styles for the column and measure the width of the text.
This is a common topic on the web. Use google to find something suitable.

Hi,
Here is a link to some datagrid columns I been working on. There is
a multiline column which will automatically adjust the row height in there. http://www.onteorasoftware.com/downl...lesexample.zip
