I got the requirement to implement this excel-like feature in the existing xamDataGrid in the application. For those who don't know what it is, they want to drag a cell (using rclick) and by doing so copy original cell value across the selected cells. Before I start digging in the code, maybe I can save myself some trouble.
Is the feature maybe available "out-of-the-box" for xamDataGrid? I couldn't find anything in docs or the web, but maybe I searched wrong.
If not, any recommendation on how this would be doable by custom code.
I am still rather new to xamDataGrid object model and requirement is rather urgent.
Drag fill behavior for the XamDataGrid would be a feature request as it isn't built into the control. For this you should reach out to Infragistics through either the forums or a support case. You can find links to each from the get help page:

I tried searching but can't find any answer to my inquiry.
Here goes.
I want to change the GUI of the checkbox in a CheckBoxList, using asp.net and C#.
For example, I would like to see a ([] unchecked state) ([x]checked state)
instead of the standard checkbox.
1.Is this doable in C# asp.net, webform?
I've found a tutorial on WPF Styles and Control Templates, but this is all new to me, it
says I have to use MS Silverlight, and coding within the control template of an .xaml file.
2.Is this the only solution?
3.I've noticed how to add tags while writing down my question, can someone tell me how this is implemented? (This is the end result I had in mind)
Due to spam prevention, I can't post images, please see link:

Thanks for your time.
There could be various ways depending on what and how you want to achieve the effect.
1. CSS
2. Custom control from scratch
3. JQuery

I'm trying selecting multiple check edit boxes when added as a repository item in a grid control, but at the moment it only allows me to select one at a time. So far I've seen that one need to unbound the checkedit's. But I don't know how to do this.
Does anyone have good examples or links of how I can get this working.
Because what I need to do is select certain option in the beginning of a process and then late display the exact same selections but still with the unselected ones
Thanks
The functionality you are asking about is the default one for XtraGrid, DXGrid (WPF). I believe that you are using XtraGrid and do not understand the problem you ran into. Everything should work properly and should not require additional adjustments. Could you please explain the problem in greater details. If the XtraGrid does not allow the end-user to edit its data, we need to know which DataSource you are using.
Does anyone know of a good listview component other than the one included with Visual Studio (as it looks kinda boring)?
Devexpress are good too. http://devexpress.com
(Quick edit missed the Winforms bit). For Winforms controls, I'd recommend Telerik.
If you want to modify the look of your form and controls try DotNetSkin. You can modify controls from existing windows themes or your own controls by modifying it.
If you want a free ListView, you should try ObjectListView, it has a LOT of features.
You better be careful about the license if you want to use it in a commercial product though. See these answers for more information about the license: here and there.
You may try Better ListView.
It has native look and feel. It also supports many nice features, like hierarchical items, multi-column sorting, data binding, three-state check boxes... the list goes on :-)
It is not a ListView wrapper, but self-contained control so it fixes all inherent flaws of .NET ListView (these are enumerated on ComponentOwl's website).
Take into account the 10Tec iGrid control:
Its main features are:
Multi-column sorting with indication in column headers.
Grouping and autofilter are also available.
"Subitems" (cells) can be edited.
Rows can have different heights.
Rows/cells can be formatted dynamically easily.
Built-in incremental search.
TreeListView mode.
No flickering and fast work with 100'000+ rows.

I need to build a blotter using csharp and WPF. Basically, like an excel sheet but would have the capability of customizing backgrounds of each cell or setting the value of each cell. But not sure where to start.
If anybody build blotters in csharp or WPF, a few pointers on where to get started would be great. If you can suggest some good open source blotters that I can copy and enhance, that would also be great.
I cannot use standard data grids as they lack many of the capabilities I am looking for.
I know windows forms and applications related to that which have standard controls but to create cells that are editable/customizable like excel, not sure where to start....
Take a look at the Adaptable Blotter (www.adaptableblotter.com).
It includes all the functionality that you seek and works with a number of different WPF grid controls, both vendor and open source. There is a single set of screens giving you advanced search, flashing cells, bulk editing etc but with individual implementations for each underlying grid.
You can use a UniformGrid to create the Grid. You can put Textboxes or even more advanced UserControls into the cells.
I'm looking for a free advanced dropdown list control. Basically something that provides a dropdown list which can have icons, and multiple bits of text per entry (preferably one large bit of text and then a smaller bit of text underneath).
Anyone know of such a control? I've had a look but can't seem to find one.
If I can't find it I spose I'll have to create it myself. I've done a bit with custom controls but I'm not really sure how I'd go about this...how would one take a ComboBox or something but make each entry completely graphically customisable?
Any links to controls, or hints on how to create one would be greatly appreciated.
it's not a drop down list, but I think you can use the knowledge here to do the same thing
I haven't found anything on the free side of WinForms that lets you do this. If you have green fields, however, WPF gives you what you're looking for out of the box.
Check out Krypton Toolkit which is free.
