Im trying to set the column width of individual datgrid columns
I can set the column widths of all the columns at once using

Me.DataGrid1.PreferredColumnWidth = 100

But I am unable to set the individual column widths

Also the source from where my data is coming from the first
column contains a date and time i.e. 01/01/2003 12:00:00
but within the datagrid it displays 01/01/2003 and i need it
to also show the time

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated

Regards

this should help make sure you set the width for al the col's in the
datagrid

Dim ts As New DataGridTableStyle

ts.MappingName = "Table"

dgrMain.TableStyles.Clear()

dgrMain.SetDataBinding(dsForm, "Table")

dgrMain.TableStyles.Add(ts)

ts.GridColumnStyles(0).Width = 0

ts.GridColumnStyles(1).Width = 117

ts.GridColumnStyles(2).Width = 280

ts.GridColumnStyles(3).Width = 83

ts.AllowSorting = True

ts.AlternatingBackColor = Color.Lavender

ts.BackColor = Color.WhiteSmoke

ts.ForeColor = Color.MidnightBlue

ts.GridLineColor = Color.Gainsboro

ts.HeaderBackColor = Color.MidnightBlue

ts.HeaderForeColor = Color.WhiteSmoke

ts.LinkColor = Color.Navy

ts.SelectionBackColor = Color.Navy

ts.SelectionForeColor = Color.Lavender

ts.ColumnHeadersVisible = True
 
Thanks That worked great
