This sample shows how the column resizing feature of the Grid can be customized to update the total width of the Grid based on the widths of the columns. The dynamic column resizing feature can be used for regular Grids and also for Grids that employ the horizontal scrolling feature.

For the source code please check the "aspnet_columns_resizing_dynamic.aspx" sample from the Grid folder in the Suite.

"Your TreeView component with the use of the Tree DB component are a real winner. I am using this with my CMS applications that allow the user to order the documents with a simple drag and drop. It's brilliant and my clients now have a more intuitive application."
