Question

DataListView: All text columns seem being locked

BenTam 1,801

Dear All,

I fill the DataListView with the "DataListView.DataSource = ds" and find that all text columns seem being locked. I can't click into them using the mouse to make the cursor jumps into them. How to unlock them?

If this is a third-party control, then give some details.

@BenTam , what do you mean about I can't click into them using the mouse to make the cursor jumps into them? what do you want to click in the DataListview? Can you mark it in your picture?

Change CellEditActivation

For example :

 dataListView1.CellEditActivation = ObjectListView.CellEditActivateMode.DoubleClick;

Hi @Mr. Liu

Thanks for your tips. I think I will not use gridview because it involves a lot of code rewriting.
