    ReadOnly Property (GridElement)
    In This Topic
    Gets or sets a boolean value indicating if the content of cell(s) can be edited.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    <DescriptionAttribute("Indicates if the content of cells(s) can be edited.")>
    <CategoryAttribute("Behavior")>
    Public Property ReadOnly As Boolean
    'Usage
     
    Dim instance As GridElement
    Dim value As Boolean
     
    instance.ReadOnly = value
     
    value = instance.ReadOnly
    [Description("Indicates if the content of cells(s) can be edited.")]
    [Category("Behavior")]
    public bool ReadOnly {get; set;}

    Property Value

    true if the content of cell(s) cannot be edited; false (default) otherwise.
    Remarks

    If the IsReadOnlyAmbient property returns true, then the value of the ReadOnly property is inherited from its parent.

    To reset the value of the ReadOnly property to its default value, DefaultReadOnly, the ResetReadOnly method must be called.

    If the ReadOnly property is set to true but the DataBoundColumn.ReadOnlyDataSource property is false, then the content of the grid element can not be edited.

    Although the ReadOnly property ultimately affects only cells, it is defined in the GridElement class because of ambientness.
