自定义Win CE设备的DataGrid

Question

I'm writing an application for windows ce, so I have to use VS 2008.

I'm showing some Data in a dataGrid-Control (DataGridView NOT available!), and I want to customize it.

things like grid.Columns[i].width etc are not working on these controls.

I need to change the columns width and header texts, how can I achieve that? The datagrid gets it entries at runtime with this line:

dgLatestPositions.DataSource = items;

items is a list<> containing objects, the table got 2 columns. The view of the dataGrid is working fine, except these issues.

edit: Maybe something like that? (It's not working yet either)

DataGridTableStyle t = new DataGridTableStyle();
t.GridColumnStyles[0].HeaderText = "Coding";
t.GridColumnStyles[1].HeaderText = "Amount";
dgLatestPositions.TableStyles.Add(t);

Edit:

All Items are contained in a List. The article-objects looks this way: public class lastChanges

{
    public long coding { get; set; }
    public int amount { get; set; }
}

The Table shows up like this (example)

coding |amount

0123456789|3

0829346128|4

What I need to do is resize the first column and change the captions

We too have an app that requires back support under WindowsCE and has to be done in VS2008. You are very close, and what we did was created a base-class data grid for display and added a method to add the columns we wanted getting the heading text, binding column source and then the width. Here is our method and the "myTblStyle" is your DataGridTableStyle "t" variable.

public void AddColumn(string hdr, string colName, int colWidth)
{
    DataGridTextBoxColumn tbc = new DataGridTextBoxColumn();
    tbc.HeaderText = hdr;
    tbc.MappingName = colName;
    tbc.Width = colWidth;
    myTblStyle.GridColumnStyles.Add(tbc);
}
