Examples
The following code example demonstrates how to use the ReadOnly property to disable editing for an entire DataGridView. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the DataGridViewBand class.
// Make the entire DataGridView read only.
void Button8_Click( Object^ /*sender*/, System::EventArgs^ /*e*/ )
{
System::Collections::IEnumerator^ myEnum = dataGridView->Columns->GetEnumerator();
while ( myEnum->MoveNext() )
{
DataGridViewBand^ band = safe_cast<DataGridViewBand^>(myEnum->Current);
band->ReadOnly = true;
}
}
// Make the entire DataGridView read only.
private void Button8_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
foreach (DataGridViewBand band in dataGridView.Columns)
{
band.ReadOnly = true;
}
}
' Make the entire DataGridView read only.
Private Sub Button8_Click(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button8.Click
For Each band As DataGridViewBand In dataGridView.Columns
band.ReadOnly = True
Next
End Sub
Remarks
The ReadOnly property affects the DataGridViewCell.ReadOnly property of each cell in the band. For example, if the ReadOnly property of a DataGridViewRow changes, then the DataGridViewCell.ReadOnly property of all cells in the row will change.
