Smart Devices applications or Windows forms application?? That same??

One way to do this is to use MeasureString to compute the size of the text
in each cell, and then take the maximum value. Below is a code snippet that
does this. It assumes your datagrid is bound to a datatable. You can
download a full working sample. (C#,VB).

public void AutoSizeCol(int col)

{

float width = 0;

int numRows = ((DataTable) dataGrid1.DataSource).Rows.Count;



Graphics g = Graphics.FromHwnd(dataGrid1.Handle);

StringFormat sf = new StringFormat(StringFormat.GenericTypographic);

SizeF size;



for(int i = 0; i < numRows; ++ i)

{

size = g.MeasureString(dataGrid1[i, col].ToString(),
dataGrid1.Font, 500, sf);

if(size.Width > width)

width = size.Width;

}



g.Dispose();



dataGrid1.TableStyles["customers"].GridColumnStyles[col].Width = (int)
width + 8; // 8 is for leading and trailing padding

}
