DataGrid newbie question

  • Thread starter Thread starter Andy
  • Start date Start date
I do this:


'Define a new table style and it's properties
Dim ColStyle As New DataGridTableStyle()
ColStyle.MappingName = "NAME OF TABLE"
ColStyle.AlternatingBackColor = System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb
(CType(192, Byte), CType(255, Byte), CType(255, Byte))

'Then Define the DataGridTextBoxColumn for each column in your tablestyle
Dim ColAppRegion As New DataGridTextBoxColumn()
ColAppRegion.MappingName = "App_Region_CD"
ColAppRegion.HeaderText = "Region Code"
ColAppRegion.Width = 25

Dim ColAppLongTitle As New DataGridTextBoxColumn()
ColAppLongTitle.MappingName = "App_Title_Long"
ColAppLongTitle.HeaderText = "App Long Title"
ColAppLongTitle.Width = 88

Dim ColAppWorkExt As New DataGridTextBoxColumn()
ColAppWorkExt.MappingName = "App_BPhone_ext"
ColAppWorkExt.HeaderText = "Ext."
ColAppWorkExt.Width = 30

'Then add your columnstyles to your tablestyle

ColStyle.GridColumnStyles.Add(ColAppRegion)
ColStyle.GridColumnStyles.Add(ColAppLongTitle)
ColStyle.GridColumnStyles.Add(ColAppWorkExt)
'I then clear existing TableStyle, then add tablestyle to datagrid
DataGrid1.TableStyles.Clear()
DataGrid1.TableStyles.Add(ColStyle)
