MULTI LINE DATAGRIDVIEW VS 2008 C#
Is it possible to have a mutli-line display grid view? In my case, I have 10 fields to display on one row. It will be too tight to display them on one line, so I need to put 6 fields on the first line, 3 fields on the second and one on the third. So I need each row to look like this:
Line/Part Number/Desc/Note Quantity Cost Sell Vendor
-------------------------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ------
1.00 MyPartNumber 10 2.49 4.95 My Vendor
Decription of part Each 3-4 week delivery My Vendor Name
Note pertaining to part
-------------------------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ------
So as you can see each row contain 10 fields and these fields are displayed over 3 lines.
Line/Part Number/Desc/Note Quantity Cost Sell Vendor
--------------------------
1.00 MyPartNumber 10 2.49 4.95 My Vendor
Decription of part Each 3-4 week delivery My Vendor Name
Note pertaining to part
--------------------------
So as you can see each row contain 10 fields and these fields are displayed over 3 lines.

I will play around with scrollbars. I do not see it as a control but I will search. I bellieve they are an actual property of the data view. Speaking of which, if you look a that attached screen shot, I have a couple of questions.
1) In my data view grid the date formats to MM/DD/YY. However, in my text box above is it the long type format. How do I correct this?
2) On the screen shot how did I get rid of the column on the far left that has the little black arrow? That is just wasting space.
3) How do I set the format of the line number column to have just 2 decimal places?
4) How do set the cost and sell colmns to be decimal?
Finally is there any documentation that describes all of these format types?
