• Windows Forms Can't hide first column in DataGridView

  I am unable to hide the first column in a DataGridView. I am not referring to the header column but a databound ID column in the grid. As a general rule I put the ID column at the front and hide it so I can always reference the ID column in column [0]. For some reason I am able to hide any other column by setting the visible property to false except for the first column. It depends upon the code and when you databind and when you set the column's visible to false. Can you post a simple project that demonstrates the problem   -mark DataGridView Program Manager Microsoft This post is ...Show All

• .NET Development How to resume broken download in C# Application

  How to resume HTTP broken download in C# Application with HttpWebRequest or WebRequest Thankyou. I beleive you have a couple options: 1. The simplest is to do full retry of the download on failure.  Probably not the best choice for large downloads :) 2. Determine the number of bytes already received prior to the download stopping.  Then, in a second request, do a byte range request to download the rest of the file.  To get the final result, concatenate the bytes received from the first and second request.
