Visual Basic: DataGrid Control

AllowRowSizing Property

See Also   Example   Applies To

Returns or sets a value indicating whether a user can resize the rows of the DataGrid control or Split object at run-time.

Syntax

object**.AllowRowSizing** [**=**value]

The AllowRowSizing property syntax has these parts:

Part Description
object An object expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list.
value A Boolean expression that determines whether a user can resize rows, as described in Settings.

Settings

The settings for value are:

Setting Description
True Rows can be sized by the user.
False Rows can't be sized by the user.

Remarks

If the AllowRowSizing property is True, the mouse pointer turns into a double-headed (Size N S) arrow when positioned over the row divider between any record selectors, and the user can resize the rows by dragging. Any change in row size causes a RowResize event.

All rows of the DataGrid control are always the same height, which is determined by the RowHeight property.

Note   Even if the AllowRowSizing property is False, the height of the rows can still be changed programmatically with the RowHeight property.
