View 3 RepliesI have this combobox and I cannot reduce the size and width of the combo list.
on the pic 1 is Height and 2-3 is the width.
I have a dropdown list in a gridview field. The DataValueField for the ddl is an 8 digit item code. The text to display through will be quite longer, 40-60 characters because it will combine the item code and item name into a single string. I don't want the dropdownlist field to be that wide though, only what is displayed when the ddl is selected.In Access you can set the width property of the list to display wider than the field itself. Is there that capability in ASP.NET and if so where do I find it?
View 2 RepliesIs there any way to set the width of a GridView to a pre-determined width?
I have set the width of the gridview and all the columns to a % and then to a number of pixels but it does work. The gridview always sets itself to a width required to display all fields and it goes beyond the resolution of the screen. I would like to contain it to 1024 pixels.
Here's my .aspx

there a way to change the width of the combobox control dropdown list? The problem is that because of the entries in it width of the combobox' dropdownlist exceeds the width of the screen resolution itself.So, is there a way to set a fixed width or any other better solution?
View 4 RepliesIs it possible to show from the begining a vertical scroll bar associated with a datagrid control, i want to avoid using overflow property in div:
<div id="Div1" style="OVERFLOW: auto; WIDTH: 730px; HEIGHT: 260px" runat="server">
<asp:datagrid id="OrdersDG" runat="server" Width="700px" CssClass="GridTextboxes" DataKeyField="orderid"
This is very frustraiting because I have read a thousand posts on this and nothing works. I have a gridview which is programatically bound to a dataset which is created from dataset.readxml(xdocument.createreader). The table gets created without issue.
I have allow sorting set to true. when i click the sorting linkbutton I get the event handler error. So i create an empty event handler and that doesn't give me an error but also accomplishes nothing. So I searched and searched and found that i need to call the gridview.sort method to programmatically sort in the event handler. So when i do this
GridView1.Sort(expression, SortDirection.Ascending)
as seen in
[URL]
i get stackoverflow error. it creates an infinate loop. none of the 20 or so posts out there seem to answer how to handle this. They say that this method is the way to call sorting.
below is my event handler
[Code]....
the behaviour is that the event handler fires and executes to the sorting line which in turn refires the event handler.
.I am new to asp.net.Is there any way we can limi the width of the gridview in the design mode.
I have to put 15-20 columns on the gridview.When I add columns to gridview the width shoots out of the page and the page design is seems ruined.
i placed it inside the panel and added scrol bars to it. it looks ok when debuggin i.e looks ok in internet explorer but in design mode it ruins the page design.
How can we bind a value to a combobox or dropdown? What is the property for binding a value?
View 1 RepliesI have the following setup:
1. A Gridview presenting data
2. A detailsView used to edit data in the gridview (used with a modelpopup extender).
In using the detailsview to add a new record, one of the data feilds should be selectable whilst also allowing the user to add to the list . Initially I implemented a DropDownList which works fine but doesn't allow adding entries. I tried replacing the DropDownList
with an Ajax ComboBox however the control doesnt seem to work as advertised. I have performed a quick search on the web and have found others reporting this issue (Ajax combobox in a detailsview) but no solutions.
What would be a way of presenting to a user in a detailsview a range of values to select from whilst allowing them to add to that list?
HiI am trying to send null value from my combobox and check it if its null in sp.

RadGrid1.DataSource = mms.SON(Country.SelectedItem.Value);

View 2 RepliesI have a datalist repeating its columns horizontally. I would like the datalist to continue to do this until it reaches maximum 500px in width then I would like the datalist to continue on the next row. Is this possible?
I know I can set RepeatColumns but since my columns vary in width it's hard to estimate. I also thought about setting each column to a fixed width like 100px but then I would get lots of whitespace if the columns content is only 30px.
i Have a dynamic column gridview control in a page hosted in sharepoint. Grid is binded to an XMl and placed inside a Div control. I have set rowstyle-wrap=false and width=100% and overflow of parent Div to auto
There are only 2 columns in grid that can have long size text data (with and without spaces between words).
Problem
1. When grid has lot of columns (say 20), a scrollbar appears on the IE window(as page content is out of windows size); but the two columns that have long text values in them, gets wrapped.
2. when grid has less columns (say 5), no scrollbar appears in IE windows(as page content fits within window).but the same two long text columns, doesn't get wrapped and render in a single line.
Is there any max width of gridview? I want that grid should take all the space (as per content) and show scrollbar; the content should not get wrapped.
how to make grid content not to wrap and expand to any width.
How can I set GridView column width? I would like to show "Edit", "Delete" and "Details" links in the same row. Currently these links are wrapped in three different lines.

View 3 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?
