-
Hello, I want to add a footer to a datagrid in a windows forms (like the datagrid for asp.net).. How do I go about doing this??? For example I want to display the totals of a columns in the footer.. any help is appreciated!!
Put a
Labelcontrol or something similar under theDataGrid. You can update theLabel.Textproperty by aggregating the values in a particular column of yourDataGrid. We do that in our app in several cases. Note thatSystem.Windows.Forms.DataGridandSystem.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGridare very different, both in terms of presentation and logic. The former is a Windows Control that binds differently than the latter, and the latter generates an HTML<table>, which makes having a footer template trivial (since it just uses the<tfoot>tag and adds your rows and columns). They are very different beasts and, IMO, should not be compared.-----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.21 GCS/G/MU d- s: a- C++++ UL@ P++(+++) L+(--) E--- W+++ N++ o+ K? w++++ O- M(+) V?
