Remarks

The collection of DataGridColumnStyle objects (the GridColumnStylesCollection) is accessed through the System.Windows.Forms.DataGrid control's TableStyles property.

The System.Windows.Forms.DataGrid control automatically creates a collection of DataGridColumnStyle objects for you when you set the DataSource property to an appropriate data source. The objects created actually are instances of one of the following classes that inherit from DataGridColumnStyle: DataGridBoolColumn or DataGridTextBoxColumn class.

To format the data display, set the Format property of the DataGridTextBoxColumn class to one of the formatting values. For more information about valid formatting values, see Formatting Types and Custom Date and Time Format Strings.

You can also create your own set of DataGridColumnStyle objects and add them to the GridColumnStylesCollection. When you do so, you must set the MappingName of each column style to the ColumnName of a DataColumn to synchronize the display of columns with the actual data.

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.

When one of the derived classes is instantiated by a System.Windows.Forms.DataGrid control, the class created depends on the DataType of the DataColumn associated with the DataGridColumnStyle object. For example, a DataColumn with its DataType set to System.Boolean will be associated with a DataGridBoolColumn. To determine the type of any DataGridColumnStyle, use the GetType method.

To create your own column classes, you can inherit from DataGridColumnStyle. You might want to do this in order to create special columns that host controls, as exemplified by the DataGridTextBox class, which hosts the TextBox control. For example, you can host an Image control to show pictures in columns, or you can create your own user control to host in the column.

The functionality of the DataGridColumnStyle shouldn't be confused with that of the DataColumn. Whereas the DataColumn contains the properties and methods appropriate to creating a data table's schema, the DataGridColumnStyle contains the properties and methods related to the appearance of an individual column on the screen.

If a row contains a DBNull.Value, the text displayed in the column can be set with the NullText property.

The DataGridColumnStyle class also allows you to specify the behavior of a column while its data is being changed. The BeginUpdate and EndUpdate methods temporarily suspend the drawing of the column while large updates are being made to the column's data. Without this functionality, every change in every cell of the grid would be immediately drawn; this could be distracting to the user and a performance liability.

Several methods allow monitoring of the column as it is edited by the user, including the Edit and Commit events.

Most of the properties and methods of the class are tailored to controlling a column's appearance. But a few, such as the GetColumnValueAtRow and SetColumnValueAtRow allow you to examine and change the value in a specified cell.

Notes to Implementers

When you inherit from DataGridColumnStyle, you must override the following members: Abort(Int32), Commit(CurrencyManager, Int32), Edit(CurrencyManager, Int32, Rectangle, Boolean), and Paint(Graphics, Rectangle, CurrencyManager, Int32) (twice).
