Setting column width after grid has loaded

How can I set the width of a column after my grid has already been loaded? (seems like such a simple task but I can't seem to get it...)

Example: Program is running, user performs some action, I want to resize one or more columns.

Thank you,
Mike

I would also like to know how to do this in code.

In my case, if the user has adjusted the column widths, I want to save the widths when the form is closing and set them the next time they open the form.

I have tryed setting the CellWidth and ColumnWidth but they don't seem to make any difference.

Hi Ron/Mike -

You will need to set both the LabelWidth and CellWidth properties on the FieldSettings object to force the column to be a particluar width.

However, there is a problem in the current 7.1 and 7.2 releases: while the above settings will take effect if you set them before the user interacts with the grid, once the user has resized a column in the UI, any subsequent settings you make to the above 2 properties are ignored. This is a bug in the 7.1 and 7.2 releases which has been addressed in the next hot fix which will be available late this week or early next week.
