0	You can wrap your GridView in the div and specify style for the div something like <div style="width:200px;overflow:auto;"> <asp:Gridview id="gv" runat="server"></asp:gridview> </div> This will bring a scrollbar automatically when the GridView size increases 200px.

0	You can use row databound event to handle this on page load register this event GridView2.RowDataBound += new GridViewRowEventHandler(GridView2_RowDataBound); Then define this method void GridView2_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e) { if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.Header \|\| e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow) { foreach (TableCell item in e.Row.Cells) { item.Wrap = true; item.Width = 100; } } } Oswaldlily, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator

on page load register this event

GridView2.RowDataBound += new GridViewRowEventHandler(GridView2_RowDataBound);

Then define this method

void GridView2_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)

    {

        if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.Header  || e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)

        {

            foreach (TableCell item in e.Row.Cells)

            {

                item.Wrap = true;

                item.Width = 100;

            }

        }

    }
