Thanks Suresh for your answer, if i set the Height of the Datagrid i can retrieve it afterwards, yes. But what i need is the actual height of the table, the amount of space it takes when it is rendered. For example if i have multiple rows in the table which are higher than the default height of a row, the whole table gets higher, because the height of the table is determined by the heights of its rows. And i want to retrieve the height of the table after the datagrid is databinded. Thanks in advance Jens
