Inserting a blank datagridview row into a datgridview

mountainyman

I have a datagridview on a form I want to conditionally insert a seperator between rows.

        For iRow = 1 To dgvUserlist.rowcount

            If dgvUSERLIST.Item("USER", iRow).Value <> dgvUserlist.Item("USER", iRow - 1).Value Then
                dgvUserlist.Rows.Add(iRow)

[b]  DO STUFF HERE[ /B]

            End If

        Next

So I want to compare the value of the users column with the one above it and insert a seperator.

Anyone have any thoughts?

It seems to me that what you want to do is display one or more rows for each user and each user (indepenedent of the number of rows they have) will have a seperator between them.

It seems to me in the code above that you're iterating through the gridview's row after they've been databound. You'd probably want to do this during databinding.

The issue there is that the datagridview is not bound. That is there is no underlying datatable. At least there is no underlying datatable being formally created by me.

Could you use a repeater control to render the HTML for you? That, to me, would be a lot easier than going the gridview route.

Second this.

Also how are you displaying data if you are not binding?

I am passing a stroed procedure name and variable to sql dat reader.

This problem is resolved I increased the height of the relevant row. There was a color field in the grid but I juts replaced the color with an image.
