Question

I want to enable only two columns in the DataGridview to be able to edit.
The others should not be allowed to edit.
Further I am not directly linking to datasource;
I will be doing some thing like this way

DataTable dt = new DataTable();
dt.Columns.Add("Email");
dt.Columns.Add("email1");
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
    DataRow dr = dt.NewRow();
    dr["Email"] = i.ToString();
    dr["email1"] = i.ToString() + "sdf";
    dt.Rows.Add(dr);
}
BindingSource bs = new BindingSource();
bs.DataSource = dt;
dataGridView1.DataSource = bs;

So which property should I set, that will enable only one column say Email(in the above eg) to be editable.

Answer 1

Set the ReadOnly property of the other columns to true.

(You’ll probably need to loop through the Columns collection and use an if statement)
