Accessing cell properties from DataGrid object

Accessing cell properties from DataGrid object

  Do you use DataGrid or DataGridView I suggest you use DataGridView and it can disable cells by "grid[col, row].ReadOnly" property.

  If you want just to disable some of the cell of a .Net 1.1 DataGrid, see this sample.

  ACtually I was trying to disable the cell for editing.

  That's sad. Still you can change AllowEdit to false in DataView when you enter protected cell and change it back to true when you enter another cell (you can do this in CurrentCellChanged event handler).

  In DataGridView you can access cells by grid[col,row].

  In DataGrid there is no cell properties.

  Hi,bilalso

  For DataGrid in NET 1.1, there's no direct property to access a certain cell, but if you want to disable a whole column, you can use the DataGridTableStyle, e.g.:

  this.dataGrid1.DataSource = dtBook;//a datatable named "dtBook"

  DataGridTableStyle tbStyle = new DataGridTableStyle();

  tbStyle.MappingName = "dtBook";

  this.dataGrid1.TableStyles.Add(tbStyle);

  this.dataGrid1.TableStyles["dtBook"].GridColumnStyles[2].ReadOnly = true;//disable the 3rd column

  Hope it helps.
  Best Regards.
  Ye
