如何根据数据库字段宽度设置Gridview列宽？

Question

I am new to windows desktop application development.

I have a grid in which I am displaying list of customers whose bills are printed.

The form looks like this .

The grid in this form displays the list of all customers and it is bounded in the Form_Load() my code is :

private void SearchForm_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{   
    cn = db.createConnection();
    if (cn.State == System.Data.ConnectionState.Open)
        cn.Close();
    cn.Open();
    cmd = new OleDbCommand("Select BillNo,PartyName,Address,City,State,BillDt from BillMaster", cn);
    da = new OleDbDataAdapter(cmd);
    ds = new DataSet();
    da.Fill(ds);
    cn.Close();
    dataGridView1.DataSource = ds.Tables[0];
    ds.Dispose();
}

But the width of the PartyName field is too short to read the full name. I want to customize the size of the all fields. How to do so?

Please help.

AutoResizeColumns is what you looking for.

dataGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode = DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.AllCells;

AllCells - The column width adjusts to fit the contents of all cells in the column, including the header cell.

Also, have a look in DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnMode Enumeration
