Questions regarding datagrid control

[sean]

Hi There,

I would like to find out if I can modify some of the properties of a
datagrid.

1. How can modify the width of the fields ? when hit the update button all
of the fields are around 200px wide, I have tried to use "size" but I
receive an error.
2. can I validate the fields in a datagrid say for numeric / currency
datatype ?
3. how can I make a password field in a datagrid?
4. When the datagrid is in edit mode can I adjust the size of the datagrid
width itself?

Sean - Thanks in adavnce for your answer
