Hi Experts,

I want to disable a specific column so that user can't move to there. This column has to be used only for displaying result based on another columns.

Please help me.

Thanks,

Anil Kumar

Hi,
you can set the 'readonly-property' of the column like this:

C#

dataGridView1.Columns["YourColumnName"].ReadOnly = true;

I've already set this property. but we can move there by control like TAB. I mean, the disabled column should not selected also.

Why is it a problem to select the column? The User cannot change the value.
Maybe its OK to select the full row and not a specific column, set the 'selectionmode' from the datagridview of 'FullRowSelect'.
