How to add a template dynamically in DataRepeater (Win forms)

Question

Hi,

I am developing a win forms application and I need to use Datarepeater control to display some formatted data. I have used listview before this but it does not fit my requirment, so I need to use dataRepeater control.

Can anyone tell me that, how can I add a template dynamically to datarepeater and how can I bind items one by one into datarepeater ?

The application domain is POS, so when user clicks on items to add it in order list. All the items are having different options that I need to manage and show to user when he/she making bill.

In short, I need a good example to work with datarepeater in win-forms. i.e.

 # How to bind items one by one

 # How to create template dynamically and add it to datarepeater.

Thanks

Hi Vips,

Welcome to the MSDN forum.

# How to bind items one by one

As far as I see, you can add data to its data source and then re-bind it to dataRepeater.

# How to create template dynamically and add it to datarepeater.

You need to add codes in DataRepeater.DrawItems event. For a detailed example, please download it at:http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsdesktop/DataRepeater-Control-Sample-2b7c33ef/view/Reviews

If I misunderstood anything, please feel free to let me know.

Best regards,
