This topic demonstrates how to add borders and spacing to C1GridView programmatically, using the following properties:

Property	Data Type
BorderColor	System.Drawing.Color
BorderStyle	BorderStyle (enum)
BorderWidth	System.Web.UI.WebControls.Unit
CellPadding	Integer
CellSpacing	Integer
GridLines	System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridLines

Border Color

The following code changes the color of the grid border to blue:

C1GridView1.BorderColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue

• C#

C1GridView1.BorderColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue;

Border Style

The following code gives the grid a dashed border:

C1GridView1.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.Dashed

• C#

C1GridView1.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.Dashed;

Border Width

The following code makes the grid border width five pixels:

C1GridView1.BorderWidth = System.Web.UI.WebControls.Unit.Pixel(5)

• C#

C1GridView1.BorderWidth = System.Web.UI.WebControls.Unit.Pixel(5);

Cell Padding

This code makes the padding within cells five pixels:

C1GridView1.CellPadding = 5

• C#

C1GridView1.CellPadding = 5;

Cell Spacing

This code makes the cell spacing of the grid ten pixels:

C1GridView1.CellSpacing = 10

• C#

C1GridView1.CellSpacing = 10;

Grid Lines

This code gives the grid horizontal lines but not vertical lines:

C1GridView1.GridLines = GridLines.Horizontal

• C#

C1GridView1.GridLines = GridLines.Horizontal;
