I am an ASP newbie and I have created a listview to display a table that works okay. I would like to change it so when you go to the next page the widths of the columns don't change. I found some code at a website called the code project that is supposed to do this but I was wondering if there was a way you could just set the column widths in the template code.
View 12 RepliesI have read all kinds of great things about the new List View (well it was new when 3.5 was introduced). But I have not figured out how to set the width of a column. I have tried setting width in Layout, Item, Alternate, but none seems to affect the width.In related question, is there any way to hide a column?
View 4 RepliesI have the following ListView:
<asp:ListView ID="ListView1" runat="server" DataKeyNames="ListItemID"

<LayoutTemplate>
<table id="ListItemsTbl" runat="server" style="width:460px; overflow: hidden">

<asp:LinkButton runat="server" CommandName="sort"

<th>
<asp:LinkButton runat="server" CommandName="sort"
CommandArgument="ItemBoughtBy" Text="Bought By" />
</th>
</tr>
<tr id="itemPlaceholder" runat="server" />
</table>
</LayoutTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<tr id="row" runat="server" class='<%= Container.DataItemIndex % 2 == 0 ? "row" : "altrow" %>'>
<td style="width: 10%; overflow: scroll;"><%# Eval("ItemDescription") %></td>
<td style="width: 10%; overflow: scroll;"><%#Eval("ItemURL")%></td>
<td style="width: 10%; overflow: scroll;"><%#Eval("ItemPrice")%></td>
<td style="width: 10%; overflow: scroll;"><%#Eval("ItemBoughtBy")%></td>
</tr>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:ListView>
but the styles have no effect on the listview which just splats itself all over the screen!
What am I doing wrong? How do I control the appearence of the listview?

I have a GridView, in which the width of each column is dynamic and changes depending on the dataset. I need to get the width of each column for use in my PDF exporter, but the column/cells width is always '0', presumably because I haven't set the width property.
Is there a way around this?

Using reportviewer, not crystal reports.
I want to be able to set column width to the size of the longest data in the column.
From what I see, the couumn width seems to be fixed by what I set in the rdlc file.
I have seen some posts talk about dynamically sizing the column to the header text, which is not what I'm looking for.
Is this possible with reportviewer?
I have been looking for an answer to this for awhile and haven't found what I am looking for. I have a GridView with 5 columns. One of those columns is a very long string with instead of " ". I need to be able to fix the width of the column and have word wrap take care of the string till the end of it. I have tried all the properties on the gridview to get what I need but the span always stretches out horizontally and never wraps. Here is my gridView code

I am not a fan of what I have to do but the client wants what the client wants(I need to mimic the user interface of a mainframe screen).
I am binding a table to a gridview in asp.net as such
grdIssues.DataSource = mdtIssues;
grdIssues.DataBind();
The problem is I cannot then control the column width, asp.net seems to decided on it's own what width each column should be. Methods such as
grdIssues.Columns[0].ItemStyle.Width = 100;
grdIssues.Columns[1].ItemStyle.Width = 100;
don't work because the columns are created dynamically. I cannot believe there isn't a way to do this short of manually creating each column and filling each row.
I have a gridview that I need to get the width of columns for after the gridview is databound. I have to have AutoGenerateColumns=true because the columns for the datatable that the gridview is bound to is not going to be fixed. The problem I'm having is the gridview columns collection is not populated when AutoGenerateColumns is true. Is there anyway I can get the width of each column after the gridview is databound? I've tried using RowDataBound and going through the tablecells but the width is 0 for every column.

However the the column in the gridview is dynamic created which might more or less depend on system logic.
