Show search results

[Guest]

Hi

does anyone know if it's possible in .NET to display a multicolumn list like in MSAccess? I'm building an application in which a user can enter a search text and the application will then show a list of results that match the search text. But I want to display more than one column (ie. company name, address, telephone, etc.). I was able to do this bu using a datagrid but that's not what I want because I can't set the column width of the datagrid.

Is it possible in .NET

Thx
Maurice

Hi,

Have a look at the TableStyles member of the datagrid and the associated
DataGridColumnStyle class (you can set details about the columns including
width)...Try something similar to the following:

Dim dgcs As DataGridColumnStyle

For Each dgcs In DataGrid1.TableStyles
If dgcs.HeaderText = "Name" Then
dgcs.Width = 200
End If
If dgcs.HeaderText = "Description" Then
dgcs.Width = 400
End If
Next
