Hi,Is any controls can do it this way? I am using VS2008, vb.net.
traditionally the grid column and row is display in vertically, how if i want is display in horizontally??
The field must be editable, not read only.
Appreciated if any advice..
So, you want a set number of rows and a variable number of columns? There's nothing built into the .NET Framework designed to do that. You could get a DataGridView to display data like that, although it's not natural so it would take a bit of fiddling. There may be third-party grids around that can do it, but they would most likely not be free.
That is fixed only 2 colums (Named "No","Bit") , I only want the rows keep adding to right instead of traditional keep adding to bottom, i want to confirm that is no any build in .NET framework3.5?
The only way i can do is look for 3rd party?
i am trying datagridview, but failed to explore it. or i missed something?
the listview control has that functionality.
but i thought listview is cant be editable? readonly?
No it doesn't. A ListView has column headers and no row headers. To add data horizontally instead of vertically you would have to add a new ColumnHeader and then a new subitem to each existing item. For a control to actually support that functionality it would have to allow you to add a single item to a collection to add a new column visually, which is not possible with the ListView.Quote:

You can always create your own control to do just that.
it's not readonly. It however can only be edited through code. To do what you wanted, you would have to have the metrics of the location of each field and display a textbox there whenever you clicked on that spot. I did this with a program on dvd information once. I had a custom field for notes. It worked fine but if you are wanting the dotted lines between the rows you can't do that.Quote:

as jmclhinley said, it doesn't really have row headers, but you could use the primary key that way because every field can have custom fonts and background colors. the left side could be made to look like it.
the reason i suggested that control is the fact any new subitem you add will appear on the far right. However if you need the full editing functionality, you may be better off with the grid control, since it already incorporates the textbox.
