Set Gridview column minWidth

Can we set minwidth of any particular column of a gridview?

I am not using itemtemplate or databound.

Can we do it in C# or any other way?

For auto-generated fields , you can use <asp:Label> with Bind ,

   <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="REQ_ID" SortExpression="REQ_ID" ItemStyle-CssClass="minWidth">
      <ItemTemplate>
         <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("REQ_ID")%>'></asp:Label>
      </ItemTemplate>
   </asp:TemplateField>

its css

    <style>

       .minWidth {
            min-width: 400px;
        }

    </style>

You have to use CSS for this. First set the ItemStyle-CssClass to a specific class.

<asp:TemplateField ItemStyle-CssClass="minWidth">
    <ItemTemplate>
        <%# Eval("myColumn") %>
    </ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>

Then define the minimum width for the column there

.minWidth {
    min-width: 400px;
}

If you only use autogenerated columns you can do this

GridView1.HeaderRow.Cells[0].Attributes.Add("style", "min-width: 400px");
