RowHeaderStyle setting background color?

Md Athaulla 30-Aug-12 2:22am

Thanks for the reply. I have changed the background color to dimgray but i guess the actual problem is, datagridview is not getting refreshed. even the datagridview rows are not coming proper.

1) What do you mean by "datagridview is not getting refreshed"?
2. Just setting the back color will not help. You have to set
EnableHeadersVisualStyles property to false.
Did you try the solution I gave?

Why don't you try to have just one grid in a separate form and test it from there.
Obviously I am not sure about the complexity of your project, I feel some thing fishy about the form or container in which your grid has been placed.

ya i have put the datagridview inside groupbox. ill try to remove the groupbox and check. one more thing i want to know. Is there any plugin available for vs2008 to check the performance. i wanna know which instruction takes more time?

Thanks for the reply. that "Analyze" menu is not available in vs2008 professional. it is available only in "VS2008 team suite" version. anyways thanks for the reply.

1) Is the row header issue resolved? How is it looking outside the container?
2) If you want to verify the performance, have stats for the following:
(i) Check how much time is taken for data retrieval from the data base?
(ii) How much time is taken for the data to be retrieved from you data access
layer to presentation layer
(iii) How much time is taken for the data binding.
(That is time for painting the grid on to the form)

1)yes it is still the same outside the container. but in the client machine it is working fine.
2)we are using file system more than database. we receive ecg data through serial port then plot it on the screen. at last we will store that data in a file. so we are using more file.io, drawing and serialport communication operations.

If you don't want to have a row header, set the "RowHeadersVisible" property of datagridview to false as given below:
dataGridView1.RowHeadersVisible = false;

If you want to set a different color to row header, use the code below:
dataGridView1.RowHeadersDefaultCellStyle.BackColor = Color.Red;
dataGridView1.EnableHeadersVisualStyles = false;
