The column header cell can display column selection or sorting indicators.

ColumnHeaderCell can only be placed in ColumnHeaderSection.

In addition to the features of the HeaderCell, the following features can also be used in ColumnHeaderCell.

Rearrange Rows (Built-In Sorting)
Filter Rows (Built-In Filter)
Drop-Down List

For more details on each feature, refer to the ColumnHeaderCell class.

For more information on data types, cell edit control, style, shortcut keys, and events, refer to HeaderCell.

Using Code

The code below shows a column header cell that selects a cell in the column header section and a column header cell that sorts a cell.

[VB]

Imports GrapeCity.Win.MultiRow

Dim template As Template = New Template()
Dim columnHeaderSection As ColumnHeaderSection = New ColumnHeaderSection()
Dim columnHeaderCell1 As ColumnHeaderCell = New ColumnHeaderCell()
Dim columnHeaderCell2 As ColumnHeaderCell = New ColumnHeaderCell()
columnHeaderCell1.Location = New Point(0, 0)
columnHeaderCell1.Value = "Select"
columnHeaderCell2.Location = New Point(columnHeaderCell1.Width, 0)
columnHeaderCell2.Value = "Sort"
columnHeaderCell2.SortCellIndex = 1
columnHeaderCell2.SelectionMode = MultiRowSelectionMode.None
columnHeaderCell2.SortMode = SortMode.Automatic
columnHeaderSection.Cells.Add(columnHeaderCell1)
columnHeaderSection.Cells.Add(columnHeaderCell2)
columnHeaderSection.Height = columnHeaderCell1.Height

Dim textBoxCell1 As TextBoxCell = New TextBoxCell()
Dim textBoxCell2 As TextBoxCell = New TextBoxCell()
textBoxCell1.Location = New Point(0, 0)
textBoxCell2.Location = New Point(textBoxCell1.Width, 0)
template.Row.Cells.Add(textBoxCell1)
template.Row.Cells.Add(textBoxCell2)

template.Row.Height = textBoxCell1.Height
template.Width = textBoxCell1.Size.Width * 2
template.ColumnHeaders.Add(columnHeaderSection)

GcMultiRow1.Template = template
GcMultiRow1.AllowUserToAddRows = False
GcMultiRow1.RowCount = 10

For i As Integer = 0 To GcMultiRow1.RowCount - 1
    GcMultiRow1.Rows(i).Cells(1).Value = i.ToString()
