There is no property in DataGridView like AutoGenerateDeleteButton.Please check this.

Solution 2

If inserting a button is your only problem, then try adding these lines into your gridview columns

XML

<asp:CommandField SelectText="DELETE" ShowSelectButton="True" ItemStyle-Width="50px"
                        ButtonType="Button">
                        <ItemStyle Width="50px" />
                    </asp:CommandField>

To delete any row or record therer is no need of delete button.

You can Delete any row by selecting it and pressing Delete Button on your KeyBord.Brfore doing this just check that ther following property of DataGridView should be True

VB

AllowUserToDeleteRows = True

I hope it will help you :)

For datagridview,

try this one:

C#

DataGridViewButtonColumn btn = new DataGridViewButtonColumn();
dataGridView1.Columns.Add(btn);
btn.HeaderText = "Click Data";
btn.Text = "Click Here";
btn.Name = "btn";
btn.UseColumnTextForButtonValue = true;
