NJ5J: datagrid - setting column widths

[Guest]

I have been trying to set the column widths on a datagrid using Styles but to
no avail.
When I load my datagrid with SQL Server CE data the cell widths are all
constant and too small in width. This forces the user to drag them larger -
I want to set the column widths individually so the user does not have to do
this.
My attempts to use styles has failed - and width appears to be valid for the
..net compact framework according to documentation.

Use DataGridTableStyle together with DataGridColumnStyle to set a width
for each column. Here is a small example how it can be done:

DataGridTableStyle dgts = new DataGridTableStyle();
dgts.MappingName = "TableName";

DataGridColumnStyle c = new DataGridTextBoxColumn();
c.MappingName = "FielName";
c.HeaderText = "Field";
c.Width = 100;
dgts.GridColumnStyles.Add(c);

dataGrid1.TableStyles.Add(dgts);
