CustomGroupDisplayTextEventArgs is the data class for the following events:

• DataGridView.CustomGroupDisplayText

Remarks

For more information, refer to the following help topic: CustomGroupDisplayText.

Example

The following example groups integers in the numeric grid column by parity:

To group rows as in the grid above, follow the steps below:

1. Handle the DataGridView.CustomSort event to sort values in a custom manner. If users sort data in ascending order, the grid displays even numbers first, then odd numbers. Set the DataGridView.SortMode property to Custom to apply the custom sort algorithm.

2. Enable the GridColumn.IsGrouped property for a column whose values you want to use to group rows. Handle the DataGridView.CustomGroup event to apply a custom grouping algorithm. This example divides column values into two groups of even and odd values. To show the group column, set the DataGridView.ShowGroupedColumns property to True.

3. Handle the DataGridView.CustomGroupDisplayText event to format group captions based on a condition. In this example, the display text is set based on the Value property value. The Value property contains the value of the first row in the group.
