DataGridTableStyle

[nita]

I'm just starting out, and it's incredibly frustrating when I see
sample code and then try to implement it.
Case in point. I'm populating a collection then binding it to a
datagrid. That works great. The problem is the columns are in the wrong
order. OK. I'll use the datagridtablestyle. But when I add the
following statement;

Dim tableStyle As New DataGridTableStyle

I get an error when I build the project;

Type 'DataGridTableStyle' is not defined.

so....is there something I have to import?

please help before I go bald from pulling out my hair!!!
thanks,
nita

Hi,

It is part of the system.windows.forms namespace. You should not
have any problems referencing it from a windows forms application.

As long as you use a windowsform for this.

Just thinking what this crazy error can be.

This is very odd. That should work.

Try refering to it fully.

Dim tableStyle As New System.Windows.Forms.DataGridTableStyle

If that fails. Start a new project, use Windows Application, and go to
the code. Paste that line and see if it compiles.
