AllowColumnResize Property

Description

Specifies whether GridColumns can be resized.

Property Type

Read-write property.

Syntax (Visual Basic)

Public Property AllowColumnResize() As Boolean

Remarks

If True and the Resizable property is True, columns can be resized by dragging the border of the column header to the desired size. When the mouse pointer is in a position that will allow the column to be resized, the mouse pointer changes to a splitter. See picture below.

Column Resize Example

If False, columns can only be resized via code. The mouse pointer will never change to the splitter, so the columns cannot be resized with the mouse.

Example

AllowColumnResize Sample (Visual Basic)

This sample illustrates how to disable column resizing by the user. This will not allow them to resize the column by dragging the borders of the column with the mouse.
