Datagridview header colour, paging and printing

[angelica]

HI,

Is it possible to have some colour in the headers of the datagridview pls. I cant see any in the properties?


Also how can I make some buttons to be able to switch between all the contents of the datagridview, it needs multi pages.


I need to know how to print them also.


Many thanks guys

You can use gridview column's HeaderCell.Style property Check this

I doubt if this is possible directly,though you can use same logic as that of ASP.NET's Custom Paging.

I need to know how to print them also.

May be you can use reporting tool or generate CSV file out of gridview's data.

You can't change the colour of the DGV headers without turning visual styles off, for which there is a property.

The DGV supports a virtual mode that allows paging.

Merrion has posted code in the VB.NET CodeBank forum to print the contents of DataGrid and DataGridView controls.
