Examples
The following code example demonstrates how to use a DataGridViewButtonColumn to view the sales an employee has made. The Text property is used to set the column header. This example is part of a larger example available in the DataGridViewComboBoxColumn class overview topic.
private:
void AddButtonColumn()
{
DataGridViewButtonColumn^ buttons = gcnew DataGridViewButtonColumn();
{
buttons->HeaderText = "Sales";
buttons->Text = "Sales";
buttons->UseColumnTextForButtonValue = true;
buttons->AutoSizeMode =
DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnMode::AllCells;
buttons->FlatStyle = FlatStyle::Standard;
buttons->CellTemplate->Style->BackColor = Color::Honeydew;
buttons->DisplayIndex = 0;
}
DataGridView1->Columns->Add(buttons);
}
private void AddButtonColumn()
{
DataGridViewButtonColumn buttons = new DataGridViewButtonColumn();
{
buttons.HeaderText = "Sales";
buttons.Text = "Sales";
buttons.UseColumnTextForButtonValue = true;
buttons.AutoSizeMode =
DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnMode.AllCells;
buttons.FlatStyle = FlatStyle.Standard;
buttons.CellTemplate.Style.BackColor = Color.Honeydew;
buttons.DisplayIndex = 0;
}
DataGridView1.Columns.Add(buttons);
}
Private Sub AddButtonColumn()
Dim buttons As New DataGridViewButtonColumn()
With buttons
.HeaderText = "Sales"
.Text = "Sales"
.UseColumnTextForButtonValue = True
.AutoSizeMode = DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnMode.DisplayedCells
.FlatStyle = FlatStyle.Standard
.CellTemplate.Style.BackColor = Color.Honeydew
.DisplayIndex = 0
End With
DataGridView1.Columns.Add(buttons)
End Sub
Remarks
Each DataGridViewButtonCell contained in the column that has as a UseColumnTextForButtonValue property value of true
displays the Text property value on the cell's button.
If there is an associated DataGridView control, changing this property refreshes the column display.
