C#: multiline text in DataGridView control

Is it possible for the DataGridView control to display multiline text in a cell?

I am using Visual Studio 2005 and C#.

If you want to active the multiline text in DataGridView control then WrapMode should be true

You should set DefaultCellStyle.WrapMode property of column to DataGridViewTriState.True. After that text in cells will be displayed correctly.

Example (DataGridView with one column):

dataGridView1.Columns[0].DefaultCellStyle.WrapMode = DataGridViewTriState.True;
dataGridView1.Rows.Add("test" + Environment.NewLine + "test");

(Environment.NewLine = \r\n in Windows)

dgv.AutoSizeRowsMode = DataGridViewAutoSizeRowsMode.AllCells;
dgv.Columns[1].DefaultCellStyle.WrapMode = DataGridViewTriState.True;

In my case, I got it to work this way (in addition to setting both AutoSizeRowsMode to AllCells and AutoSizeColumnsMode to AllCells):

dgvTwinReverb.Columns[PEANUT_GALLERY_COLUMN].DefaultCellStyle.WrapMode = DataGridViewTriState.True;
dgvTwinReverb.Columns[PEANUT_GALLERY_COLUMN].MinimumWidth = PEANUT_GALLERY_COLUMN_DESIRED_WIDTH;
