hide DatePicker for readonly columns

[Faraz Haque]

Hi,
I have a bound datagrid with dynamic column selection. This grid should be read only. Although I can get it to be readonly, all the date type columns still show a datepicker. How can I make ALL the columns in my grid type TextBox irrespective of the bound column type?

thanks

There is a static member of the GridModelDataBinder.AutoInitCellTypes that you can set to control this functionality. So, at the top of your form’s constructor, before the call to InitializeComponent(), , you can add:

GridModelDataBinder.AutoInitCellTypes = False

Thanks, that helps. I guess i would need to reset AutoInitCellTypes to true once I am done rendering as other forms may be affected by this static property

Alternatively, you can explicitly set the style.CellType on these columns to "Static". This would avoid having to change the static property.
