Checkbox in Header - GridDataBoundGrid

[Gurbhej Dhillon]

Hi,

I was able to put a checkbox control in the column header using the following example - http://help.syncfusion.com/ug_73/gridwin/HowToPutACheckBoxInAHeaderCellInAGridControlOrGridDataBoundGrid.html

But how do I preserve the style of the header columns - backcolor, border, etc. so it looks similar to the other header cells?

Thanks,

Gurbhej

Hi Gurphej,

Thank you for your interest in Syncfusion products.

If you want to get a Header style in GridDataBoundGrid, then please try using below way to achieve your requirement.

Refer the code below:

int colIndex1 = this.gridDataBoundGrid1.Binder.NameToColIndex("Column2");
Color color=this.gridDataBoundGrid1[0,colIndex1].BackColor;
GridBorder border = this.gridDataBoundGrid1[0,colIndex1].Borders.All;

Please let me know if you have any queries.

Regards,
Lingaraj S.

This doesnt seem to resolve the issue I am having. Please see attached screenshot. I want to have the header cell with the checkbox to look exactly like the header with the text in it.
