Yes, and one interesting note about adding scrollbars to  panels - if you add a 
"Overflow:AUTO" attribute in the style of the panels DIV tag (in the HTML), the Panel 
adds a scrollbar when the contents cross it's boders.

hi sean
I think u can control the width of datagrid by using a <asp:panel>.
so use panel and take datagrid inside the panel then u can set the width of panel for 
datagrid.

<asp:panel id = "pnl" runat="server" height="200px" width = "300px" />

try it...

  Subject: [AspNetAnyQuestionIsOk] changing size of a datagrid in edit mode?


  Hi There,

  I have a datagrid that holds quite a few columns and in edit mode it 
  spreads out to at least double the page, is there anyway to limit the 
  size as I have tried to modify the width property of the datagrid 
  itself?

  Sean - thanks in advance for your answer
