How do I...I have a DGV that loads its data from an Excel file. I have set DGV to auto size rows and columns which almost works. I don’t understand why it prefers to use the word wrap on some columns when the whole data doesn’t fill the DGV area. I’m left with a grey blank area to the right of the last column. My Question is, Is there a way to set the maximum length of the auto size columns so that expands a bit more before word wrapping? I have played around with different combinations Auto Size formats such fill, none, all cells etc and tried columns(?).maxlentgh(int32) but as you can guess it didn’t work. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.

What are you talking about? What "length"? Column's size is width.

what just because I put length not width you don't understand the question. I'm look for help, so if you’re just going to be difficult please don't answer.

This is rude, nothing else.

And starting your answer by saying What are you talking about isn't.
