ColumnSpan Property
Sets the number of columns that a field spans in a GridLayout control.
Applies To
Field controls in a GridLayout control on a page.
Property Values
An integer that specifies the number of columns to span the field.
Remarks
When you set a field to span several columns, the field occupies the cells to its right, and existing fields in the occupied cells are moved to the right. For example, the following figure illustrates a GridLayout control that consists of four fields arranged in two rows.

If you set Field 1 to span two columns, then the following layout is displayed:

Important
The ColumnSpan property is not supported by the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client or Microsoft Dynamics NAV Portal Framework for Microsoft SharePoint 2010. If the page displays in the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client or on a Microsoft SharePoint site, then the property is ignored and the field will not span any columns.
