regarding dynamically setting the cells as read only...

[Manpreet Saini]

Hi,
I am using a data bound grid. In two of its columns i have to dynamically made some cells as readonly. i am using ...
Qualification.SetReadonlyCell(rowindex,colindex, True)
But after setting them read only they do not allow the mouse to make them focused.
While if i am making the whole column as read only then all cells of that column allow the mouse to focus them.
I want those dynamically read only cells to allow the mouse to focus on them.
Please suggest.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi Manpreet,

You can handle the Model.QueryCellInfo event and set the Style.Readonly property to "true" for readonly cells. Here is a code snippet.

private void Model_QueryCellInfo(object sender, GridQueryCellInfoEventArgs e)
{
if( e.RowIndex % 2 == 0
&&( e.ColIndex == 2 || e.ColIndex == 3))
{
e.Style.ReadOnly = true;
e.Style.BackColor = Color.AliceBlue;
}
}
