<div>
I am aware that by setting the dock property, it allows the grid to be same size of the parent (form/user control)<br />
myGridView.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;// This can also be set to left, or right, etc..<br />
<br />
Does this help you?

<div>
I don't think so - because it can grow/shrink vertically based on the number of rows should the contents be modified dynamically.

In Asp.NET I was able to do the below, does this work for you? It sets as percentage of the of the parent form.<br />

<pre><code class="code-1 nolinks" id="code-20-41339909-1"><span>  &lt;asp:GridView  ID=&quot;GridView1&quot; runat=&quot;server&quot; Width=&quot;50%&quot; Height =&quot;50%&quot;&gt;</span>
<span>            </span>
<span>        &lt;/asp:GridView&gt;</span>
</code></pre>
</div>


<div>
I tried that. &nbsp;When the grid had lots of rows it just passed the bottom of the screen. &nbsp;I'd set it to be 20% of the screen height with verticals scrollbars.<br />
<br />
&lt;asp:GridView ID=&quot;GridView1&quot; runat=&quot;server&quot; DataKeyNames =&quot;xxx&quot; &nbsp;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; AllowSorting=&quot;True&quot; Font-Names=&quot;Arial&quot; Font-Size=&quot;Small&quot; &nbsp;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; RowStyle-Wrap=&quot;False&quot; BackColor=&quot;White&quot; BorderColor=&quot;Silver&quot; &nbsp; &nbsp;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; AutoGenerateColumns=&quot;True&quot;<wbr /> onsorting=&quot;GridView1_Sorti<wbr />ng&quot; Height=&quot;20%&quot; Width =&quot;80%&quot;&gt; <br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;RowStyle Wrap=&quot;False&quot; /&gt; &nbsp;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;/asp:GridView&gt;
</div>

Is it possible to Set the Gridview height to Percentage of Screen Height rather than an absolute number of pixels?<br />
Width seems to allow this.

Set Gridview height to Percentage of Screen Height

The successor to Active Server Pages, ASP.NET websites utilize the .NET framework to produce dynamic, data and content-driven web applications and services. ASP.NET code can be written using any .NET supported language. As of 2009, ASP.NET can also apply the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern to web applications

ASP.NET

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
