Is there a way to add a column footer in a datagridview which is not databound? I am using it to take user input for adding inventory. Currently I am using a la
In one of my applications I solved it by taking advantage of NewRow of DataGridView like this.
using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace WindowsFormsApplication2
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
this.dataGridView1.CellFormatting += dataGridView1_CellFormatting;
this.dataGridView1.CellValueChanged += dataGridView1_CellValueChanged;
}
void dataGridView1_CellValueChanged(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)
{
if (e.RowIndex != this.dataGridView1.NewRowIndex && e.ColumnIndex == 2)
{
this.dataGridView1.InvalidateRow(this.dataGridView1.NewRowIndex);
}
}
void dataGridView1_CellFormatting(object sender, DataGridViewCellFormattingEventArgs e)
{
if (e.RowIndex == this.dataGridView1.NewRowIndex)
{
e.CellStyle.Font = new Font(e.CellStyle.Font, FontStyle.Bold);
e.CellStyle.ForeColor = Color.Red;
switch (e.ColumnIndex)
{
case 0:
e.Value = "Total";
break;
case 2:
var sum = 0.0d;
for (int i = 0; i < this.dataGridView1.NewRowIndex; i++)
{
var value = this.dataGridView1[2, i].Value;
if (value is double)
{
sum += ((double)value);
}
}
e.Value = Math.Round(sum, 2);
break;
// Single line version of case 2 would be
// e.Value = this.dataGridView1.Rows.Cast().Where(a => a.Index != a.DataGridView.NewRowIndex).Select(a => (double)a.Cells[2].Value).Sum().ToString("N2");
}
}
}
}
}
Here is live screenshot of how it works.
