Set a text in a RowHeader cell

[MSNews]

Hi.

I need to set texts to the row headers of a Datagridview, like we can do with column headers.

For example:

=============== =============== ==========
| COLUMN A | COLUMN B | COLUMN B |
ROW 1 | | | |
ROW 2 | | | |
etc..
=============== =============== ==========
I need to set the Row 1, Row 2, etc, to each row header.

I tryed:
DataGridView1.R ows(i).HeaderCe ll.Value = "some text"
.... but did not works. No text is displayed

The reason I need to use row header is because I want to enjoy
the header behavior (it automatically changes appearance
on mouse mouse, marks the selected row, etc).

There is some manner to set the text?

' Create a new datagridView control.

datagridView1.B ounds = New Rectangle(New Point(20, 40), New Size(400, 160))

datagridView1.C olumns.Add("FED ", "FOD")

datagridView1.R ows.Add()

datagridView1.R ows(0).Cells(0) .Value = "FOO"

datagridView1.R ows(0).HeaderCe ll.Value = "SOP"

Me.Controls.Add (datagridView1)

Hmm I got the point.

We must to use a data-unbound grid to can change the header cell.

Thanks.

Hi

What is datagridview..
I want to display a text in rowheaders of DataGrid in C# not in GridView.. Please Give some ideas how to do that?

Re: Set a text in a RowHeader cell

Can you also tell how to set the width of this column? so whatever text you
put there will be visible?

Set the width to -1 or -2 and it will fit the data or the title.

[Ofer]

Re: Set a text in a RowHeader cell

Width of what?
The closest thing was
this.dataGridVi ew1.Rows[0].HeaderCell.Own ingColumn.Width but
this.dataGridVi ew1.Rows[0].HeaderCell.Own ingColumn is null
I can't figure out the column of the headercells
Column[-1] is an error!

See "DataGridVi ew control [Windows Forms], column sizing"

IIRC, it's DataGridView1.C olumns(1).Width = -1 (but I coud be wrong)

Also see "How to: Set the Sizing Modes of the Windows Forms DataGridView
Control "

[Ofer]

Re: Set a text in a RowHeader cell

DataGridView1.C olumns(1) is the second "Real" column in the grid!

I want to reference the grey column before it (-1) where you told the guy to
use
HeaderCell.Valu e
I looked in the Set the Sizing Modes of the Windows Forms DataGridView but
it does not reference this column.

Did you try

DataGridView1.R owHeadersWidthS izeMode = AutoSizeToAllHe aders

[Ofer]

Re: Set a text in a RowHeader cell

Yes! that did it!
