Hello. I am trying to determine the best method for sizing columns in a GridGroupingControl so that the columns stretch to fill the entire grid client area. I have found similar posts which stretch the final column in the collection only, but rather than expand/reduce the size of the final column only, I want each column (except for row headers, if they are visible) to expand and shrink as the grid is resized.
What is the best approach for accomplishing this?

I wanted to clarify this previous post.
I would like the column widths to resize proportionally (e.g. increase the size by 100 on a four-column grid, and each column expands its initial size by 25), as opposed to simply dividing the cilent size evenly among all grid columns.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Hi John,
If you want all columns in the grid to grow and contract as you size the grid, you can do this in QueryColWidth event handler. Refer to the GridDataBoundImageCell sample in the browser samples that has some code that does this.

Hi Rajagopal,
Thanks for your response. I have one additional question regarding this issue.
When the QueryColWidth handler is invoked, what is the best way to determine if the row is a Plus/Minus expansion button? When I have hierarchical data defined, the Plus/Minus column is being resized as well, which I would prefer to avoid.
Is there a property that I can query, using the {e.Index} of the QueryColWidth argument that will tell me whether I am on a row which contains the Plus/Minus button versus a row which contains data?
Thanks for your help with this.

Sorry. Read the last paragraph as:
