Hello all,

I have a datagrid on my page(gridlayout). I would like to make the datagrid scrollable so that it does not display over other controls. Does anyone know if/how this can be done?

Thanks,

Jim

You can put the grid inside a div with a specific height and width and with the style "overflow:auto;".

thanks for the reply.. for some reason that did not work.. the div tag showed up weird.. I eventually just added an HTML flow layout panel and added the grid to that.

Thanks again

try the following code in div tag:

<div id="Layer1" style="OVERFLOW: auto; WIDTH: 320px; POSITION: relative; HEIGHT: 120px">

actually the basic criteria to make the datagrid scrollable is :
1) the width specified in the div tag shud be less than the width of datagrid.
2)the height specified in the div tag shud be less than the height of datagrid.

thanks muskaan, i tried what you are saying but the div area always showed up in the upper left corner of the page for some reason, not around the datagrid

Jim,

You probably don't want relative positioning, just the absolute height and width should do it.

Thanks guys, put I still can't get that working. For some reason when I place the <DIV> in manually in the HTML, it dose not work. I placed a flow layout panel and dropped the dg in there and it works. Not sure what the difference is though.
