  Hi

  If it is Web Application you can do it.

  But if it is Windows Appllication then this is the Problem.

  DataGrid control don't have PictureBox column Style.If you need, you can cutomise DataGridTextBoxColumn style. I have done it long before. But it will take more time and on top of that performance also less.

  So, Better you can think for some other way (not DataGridPictureBoxColumn Style). I would suggest you dont put picture in datagrid column. If you realy want, try to customice DataGridColumnStyle and DataGridCellStyle (Both Needed) for ypur application purpose.(It may need more time).

  Hi,

  may i know whether can i customize the data grid column width according to the text in each column. for an instance, my text length is 100 and i wan to make the column width edual to 100. this means that certain column will have different width.

  Actually now i have successfully display all data in the datagrid already.

  but i wish to add a column in the datagrid to display a small image.. so is that possible for me to add a picture box in a column in the datagrid

  Hi

  you can do it.put this method in your form.

  Private Sub FormatDataGrid(ByVal ObjDataTable As DataTable)

  'Format The Scat DataGrid Style

  Try

  If IsNothing(ObjDataTable) Then

  'Check The DataTable for Nothing

  Exit Sub

  ElseIf ObjDataTable.Columns.Count = 0 Then

  'Check The Datatable Having Valid Columns

  Exit Sub

  End If

  DataGrid1.DataSource = ObjDataTable.DefaultView

  'Assign The DataTable to the DataGrid

  'Create A DataGridTableStyle Start

  Dim _dgtsTemp As New DataGridTableStyle

  Dim _intColumn As Integer

  _dgtsTemp.MappingName = ObjDataTable.TableName

  'Create A DataGridTextBoxColumn Start

  For _intColumn = 0 To ObjDataTable.Columns.Count - 1

  'Excutes the loop for every column in the datatable\

  Dim _dgtbcTemp As New DataGridTextBoxColumn

  'Create Columnstyle from DataGridColumnStyleScat

  _dgtbcTemp.MappingName = ObjDataTable.Columns(_intColumn).ColumnName()

  'Set the column name of the Column Style

  _dgtbcTemp.HeaderText = ObjDataTable.Columns(_intColumn).ColumnName()

  'Set the Column Header Text

  _dgtsTemp.GridColumnStyles.Add(_dgtbcTemp)

  'Add the Column style to the Datagrid Table style

  Next

  DataGrid1.TableStyles.Clear()

  'Clear the existing table styles if present.

  DataGrid1.TableStyles.Add(_dgtsTemp)

  'Add The customised Table style to datagrid Table style collection

  Catch ex As Exception

  'IF Exeption raisedThrough the exception

  Throw ex

  End Try

  End Sub

  And call this form with DataTable

  then if you want to change the Third column width =100

  then put this code

  DataGrid1.TableStyles(0).GridColumnStyles(2).Width = 100

  'GridColumnStyles(2) :2 is column Index

  Are you using a data grid or a datagridview

  Datagridview came with VB Express / 2005
