I've spent the last four days, 10 hours a day on Google looking for an
answer to this question and have gotten very confused.
I have .NET CF 2.0 SP2, Visual Studio .NET 2005 Pro, Dell Axim x51 PPC with
Windows Mobile 5.0.
My understanding is that we have the DataGrid and not the DataGridView,
right?
When I click on ONE row, I can get the column number and row number ... I
want to change the background color of that entire row.
If I can do one, I can do many ... I'd like a method that takes a row number
and color, and changes the entire row to a new background color.
I've seen dozens of examples on overriding paint ... do I need to ... that
method (to me anyway) implies that after the grid is loaded, cells with
certain values
will change automagically. That's not what I want. I want certain rows
when I click on them to change .... or when I select a group of rows, I want
them ALL to change the background color.
I found one example that almost works ... except it's looking for
"GetColumnValueAtRow." Then some gentleman refers us to the Microsoft CF
Datagrid page that basically says the PPC datagrid has limited
functionality????????????????
WTF? Hey, if you can't use it, then just say so ... this is akin to
saying: RTFM!!!
Is there a workaround or are we just screwed and can't do it.
Anyway, every example on the net leads me back to about a dozen examples ...
all of which don't work for me.
I mean how many links indexed by different pages can point you back to the
same newsgroups.
Why, oh why, oh why does the datagrid not expose it's rows to a background
color change??????????????????????????
I shouldn't have to go through hoops. If anyone has any easy ways of
dealing with this, please let me know .............
Thanks!
Tom
