Hi All,

I am using a datagrid to display records from my database. I have one datagrid which displays all the records and this works fine. I also have a datagrid which only displays records where location is equal to "belgium", this also works fine. My problem however is that when displaying the belgium records there may only be one or 2 records yet the grid still takes up most of the page where the header and footer is enlarged ridiculously.

When there are many records that fill the grid it looks fine but when there is only one or 2 it resizes the column as such.

 Could anyone please tell me why this happens??

 Thanks alot for your help!

Without looking at your code, I can only guess, but please check that you don't have the height of the datagrid set to 100%. At the end of the day, the grid is rendered in HTML as a table. You could look at the SOURCE rather than in the designer, and try searching from "100%" in the datagrid code. Hope this helps.

 It depends on contents in your datagrid cells .Not on size of column heading
 

 Remove any height and width properties from the source code

<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" ShowFooter="True" Height="1px" Width="310px" >
        </asp:GridView>

ahh! this reminds me asp.net 1.1,

yopu must have streached you grid to some height.

dot do that. and remove hright's valuew of Datagrid from the propertywindow... it will work fine.. :)
