Gets the collection of DataGridTableStyle objects for the grid.
public:
property System::Windows::Forms::GridTableStylesCollection ^ TableStyles { System::Windows::Forms::GridTableStylesCollection ^ get(); };
public System.Windows.Forms.GridTableStylesCollection TableStyles { get; }
member this.TableStyles : System.Windows.Forms.GridTableStylesCollection
Public ReadOnly Property TableStyles As GridTableStylesCollection
Property Value
A GridTableStylesCollection that represents the collection of DataGridTableStyle objects.
Examples
The following code example creates one DataGridTableStyle for each DataTable found in a DataSet, and sets the MappingName of the DataGridTableStyle to the TableName of the DataTable. The DataGridTableStyle is then added to the GridTableStylesCollection returned by the TableStyles property. The example also prints the MappingName of each DataGridColumnStyle in the GridColumnStylesCollection returned by the GridColumnStyles property of each DataGridTableStyle in the GridTableStylesCollection.
private:
void AddTables( DataGrid^ myDataGrid, DataSet^ myDataSet )
{
for each ( DataTable^ t in myDataSet->Tables )
{
DataGridTableStyle^ myGridTableStyle =
gcnew DataGridTableStyle;
myGridTableStyle->MappingName = t->TableName;
myDataGrid->TableStyles->Add( myGridTableStyle );
/* Note that DataGridColumnStyle objects will
be created automatically for the first DataGridTableStyle
when you add it to the GridTableStylesCollection.*/
}
}
void PrintGridStyleInfo( DataGrid^ myDataGrid )
{
/* Print the MappingName of each DataGridTableStyle,
and the MappingName of each DataGridColumnStyle. */
for each ( DataGridTableStyle^ myGridStyle in
myDataGrid->TableStyles )
{
Console::WriteLine( myGridStyle->MappingName );
for each ( DataGridColumnStyle^ myColumnStyle in
myGridStyle->GridColumnStyles )
{
Console::WriteLine( myColumnStyle->MappingName );
}
}
}
private void AddTables(DataGrid myDataGrid, DataSet myDataSet){
foreach(DataTable t in myDataSet.Tables){
DataGridTableStyle myGridTableStyle = new
DataGridTableStyle();
myGridTableStyle.MappingName = t.TableName;
myDataGrid.TableStyles.Add(myGridTableStyle);
/* Note that DataGridColumnStyle objects will
be created automatically for the first DataGridTableStyle
when you add it to the GridTableStylesCollection.*/
}
}
private void PrintGridStyleInfo(DataGrid myDataGrid){
/* Print the MappingName of each DataGridTableStyle,
and the MappingName of each DataGridColumnStyle. */
foreach(DataGridTableStyle myGridStyle in
myDataGrid.TableStyles){
Console.WriteLine(myGridStyle.MappingName);
foreach(DataGridColumnStyle myColumnStyle in
myGridStyle.GridColumnStyles){
Console.WriteLine(myColumnStyle.MappingName);
}
}
}
Private Sub AddTables(myDataGrid As DataGrid, _
myDataSet As DataSet )
Dim t As DataTable
For Each t in myDataSet.Tables
Dim myGridTableStyle As DataGridTableStyle = new _
DataGridTableStyle()
myGridTableStyle.MappingName = t.TableName
myDataGrid.TableStyles.Add(myGridTableStyle)
' Note that DataGridColumnStyle objects will
' be created automatically for the first DataGridTableStyle
' when you add it to the GridTableStylesCollection.*/
Next
End Sub
Private Sub PrintGridStyleInfo(myDataGrid As DataGrid )
Dim myGridStyle As DataGridTableStyle
Dim myColumnStyle As DataGridColumnStyle
for each myGridStyle in _
myDataGrid.TableStyles
Console.WriteLine(myGridStyle.MappingName)
for each myColumnStyle in myGridStyle.GridColumnStyles
Console.WriteLine(myColumnStyle.MappingName)
Next
Next
End Sub
Remarks
Use the GridTableStylesCollection retrieved through the TableStyles property to create customized views of each table displayed by the System.Windows.Forms.DataGrid control.
By default, the collection returned by TableStyles property does not contain any DataGridTableStyle objects. To create a set of customized views:
Create a DataGridTableStyle.
Set the MappingName of the grid table object to the TableName of the DataTable.
Add DataGridColumnStyle objects, one for each grid column you want to show, to the GridColumnStylesCollection returned by the GridColumnStyles property.
Set the MappingName of each DataGridColumnStyle to the ColumnName of a DataColumn.
Add the DataGridTableStyle object to the collection returned by TableStyles property.
Caution
Always create DataGridColumnStyle objects and add them to the GridColumnStylesCollection before adding DataGridTableStyle objects to the GridTableStylesCollection. When you add an empty DataGridTableStyle with a valid MappingName value to the collection, DataGridColumnStyle objects are automatically generated for you. Consequently, an exception will be thrown if you try to add new DataGridColumnStyle objects with duplicate MappingName values to the GridColumnStylesCollection.
