How do I allow edit only a particular column in datagridview in windows application?

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)
