DataGridView.VirtualMode Property

Definition

Gets or sets a value indicating whether you have provided your own data-management operations for the DataGridView control.

public:
 property bool VirtualMode { bool get(); void set(bool value); };
public bool VirtualMode { get; set; }
member this.VirtualMode : bool with get, set
Public Property VirtualMode As Boolean

Property Value

true if the DataGridView uses data-management operations that you provide; otherwise, false. The default is false.

Examples

The following code example code uses virtual mode to create a table of positive integers.

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Drawing;
using System;

Remarks

Virtual mode is designed for use with very large stores of data. When the VirtualMode property is true, you create a DataGridView with a set number of rows and columns and then handle the CellValueNeeded event to populate the cells. Virtual mode requires implementation of an underlying data cache to handle the population, editing, and deletion of DataGridView cells based on actions of the user. For more information about implementing virtual mode, see How to: Implement Virtual Mode in the Windows Forms DataGridView Control.

You must use virtual mode to maintain the values of unbound columns when the DataGridView control is in bound mode. Sorting by unbound columns in bound mode is not supported.
