Hi guys,
how do i trigger events when after enetering 1-5 from first col it will unhide 3 columns and if i enter beyond this it will hide 3 columns in datagrid
hope u understand it,
tnx in advanced

Hi drachx,
               I guess what you think off is not a feasible solution because you said if the value is 1-5 you need to show 3 columns and if it is not that then you need to hide 3 columns, but think there are 3 records already with values 1-5 in the first column so you need to display the 3 columns, but if you add new record that contains say 6 you need to hide 3 columns but for the first 3 records where you had values 1-5 you won't be able to see the values in the three columns, because you need to hide the columns for new the new record.

So think of some other solution like having text box.

but if you want you can make the column as readonly by using the following code

dataGrid1.TableStyles[0].GridColumnStyles["Asd"].ReadOnly = true;





It is not how much we do,
but how much love we put in the doing.

hi pradeep,
thats what i want

this is abt acctng system, actual scenario is first column indatagrid is combo box which hav a lookup , when it choose cash in bank it will unhide addtl 3 columns to enter addtl data and then for another row if its not cash in bank then the normal no. of colmns it wiil display, the user dont need to see the 3 columns unless he go back to row that contains cashin bank then it will show up again,they hav the program now written in vb6 but they dont hav the source code, as ive said before,
hope to hear u soon
thnx

The grid they use only for entering the records is it? or they are using that for viewing the records also? If they are using for entering alone, then we can try something with grid But I am not sure how to do that?

Can we do the same in TextBox?

both, its for entering data and viewing also when they need to edit their inputs, users normally have to inputs lots of data so they are keen in keyboards and not depending on mouse

What I am thinking is that hoe to implement both the functionalities with the same grid? Let me think and get back to you!

bind the grid first
Add bound columns
chk for the condition of the selected item of combo

Datagrid1.Columns(0).Visible=False/true

accordingly

Datagrid1.Columns(0).Visible=False/true

there is no columns property in datagrid
