Hi,

In a DataGridView, the first "column" (where you can click to select a whole
row for example) has a fixed width - I think. How can we find out the
current or fixed width and what are the units used?
 
Hi Juan,

The RowHeadersWidth property of the DataGridView gets or sets the width, in
pixels, of the column that contains the row headers.

So you can use the RowHeadersWidth property to get and change the width of
the column that contains the row headers.

For more information on this property, see the following MSDN document:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.datagridview.ro
wheaderswidth.aspx

Hope this helps.
If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.

Sincerely,
Linda Liu
