Column Property (UltraGridCell)

Returns the UltraGridColumn object associated with the cell. This property is not available at design-time.

Syntax

Visual Basic

'Declaration
 
Public ReadOnly Property Column As UltraGridColumn

C#

public UltraGridColumn Column {get;}

Remarks

The Column property of an object refers to a specific column in the grid as defined by an UltraGridColumn object. You use the Column property to access the properties of a specified UltraGridColumn object, or to return a reference to an UltraGridColumn object.

An UltraGridColumn object represents a single column in the grid. The UltraGridColumn object is closely linked with a single underlying data field that is used to supply the data for all the cells in the column (except in the case of unbound columns, which have no underlying data field). The UltraGridColumn object determines what type of interface (edit, dropdown list, calendar, etc.) will be used for individual cells, as well as controlling certain formatting and behavior-related settings, such as data masking, for the cells that make up the column.

Example

Following code prints out some information about the active cell.

Visual Basic

Imports Infragistics.Shared
Imports Infragistics.Win
Imports Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid
Imports System.Diagnostics

   Private Sub Button32_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles button32.Click

       ' Check if there is an active cell.
       If Not Me.ultraGrid1.ActiveCell Is Nothing Then
           ' Print out the the column key and the row index of the active cell.
           Debug.WriteLine("ActiveCell's column = " & Me.ultraGrid1.ActiveCell.Column.Key & ", Row Index = " & Me.ultraGrid1.ActiveCell.Row.Index.ToString())
       Else
           Debug.WriteLine("There is no active cell.")
       End If

   End Sub

C#

using Infragistics.Shared;
using Infragistics.Win;
using Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid;
using System.Diagnostics;

private void button32_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{

	// Check if there is an active cell.
	if ( this.ultraGrid1.ActiveCell != null )
	{
		// Print out the the column key and the row index of the active cell.
		Debug.WriteLine( "ActiveCell's column = " + this.ultraGrid1.ActiveCell.Column.Key + ", Row Index = " + this.ultraGrid1.ActiveCell.Row.Index.ToString( ) );
	}
	else
	{
		Debug.WriteLine( "There is no active cell." );
	}

}
