Datagridview on Tab control

Hi,

I have a form with tab control in it and in on of the tabs I got a datagrid.

On runtime, whenever I try to display data on the datagrid from a database, the datagrid "jumps" from the tab to the form itself so the tab hides most of it.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Udi

Hi,

I've figured out what I did wrong, it now works (I've initialized the datagrid on form1 when I should've initialized it to the controltab)

Thanks,

Hi

This code shows how to use data gridview in tabcontrol.

 private void MyTabControl_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
        {
            Dispatcher.BeginInvoke((Action)delegate(TabItem selectedTab)
            {
                if (selectedTab == MyTab)
                {
                    MyColumn.Width = new DataGridLength(1, DataGridLengthUnitType.Star);
                }
            }
            , System.Windows.Threading.DispatcherPriority.ApplicationIdle, MyTabControl.SelectedItem);
