DataGridView Control

A DataGridView control is used to provide a customizable and sortable table for displaying data to the user.

In the ScriptoForm PowerShell script file, a ComboBox control should be instantiated in the Controls region and then defined within the main forms script block.

Examples

Instantiate a DataGridView control:

$DataGridViewProcesses = New-Object -TypeName System.Windows.Forms.DataGridView

Set properties on a DataGridView control:

$DataGridViewProcesses.Location = New-Object -TypeName System.Drawing.Point(15,35)
$DataGridViewProcesses.Size = New-Object -TypeName System.Drawing.Size(($FormWidth - 50),325)
$DataGridViewProcesses.TabStop = $false
$DataGridViewProcesses.RowTemplate.Height = 20
$DataGridViewProcesses.DataBindings.DefaultDataSourceUpdateMode = [System.Windows.Forms.DataSourceUpdateMode]::OnValidation
$DataGridViewProcesses.ScrollBars = [System.Windows.Forms.ScrollBars]::Vertical
$DataGridViewProcesses.RowHeadersVisible = $false
$DataGridViewProcesses.AllowUserToResizeRows = $false
$DataGridViewProcesses.ReadOnly = $true
$DataGridViewProcesses.AllowUserToAddRows = $false
$DataGridViewProcesses.AllowUserToDeleteRows = $false
$GroupBoxMain.Controls.Add($DataGridViewProcesses)

Notes

The data used with a DataGridView control should first be converted into a System.Data.DataTable .NET object type so that it can be sorted interactively.
