UltraWinGrid bands - create in designer
posted

In the VB6 Ultragrid with SQL Server we used to make the SQL with a SHAPE. The first shape became band 0, and the next section of the sql became band 1 and so on.

It was like predefining the Column Header groups that people can now do by dragging the column to the top of the grid.

If I want to do this in the designer, how do I do that?

    Hi,

    If you want to display hierarchical data in the grid, there are two ways to do it. One is by taking a flat set of data and using OutlookGroupBy - that's what happens when you drag a column header into the GroupByBox. To do that programmatically, you use something like this:

    grid.DisplayLayout.Bands[0].SortedColumns.Add(column, false, true)

    The last "true" there indicates that the column should be grouped by, as well as sorted.

    The other way is to supply an actual hierarchical data source, like a DataSet with tables and Relationships.
