Optimize Data Input in .NET WinForms Grids

3月 21, 2025
Use AutoComplete cells to enhance data entry by offering context-aware suggestions, reducing user effort, and decreasing the likelihood of errors.

An AutoComplete cell type in a grid control facilitates efficient data entry by providing predictive suggestions as users type, drawing from a predefined data source to minimize errors and enhance user experience. This functionality, often implemented via lookup editors, custom cell editors, or event handling, streamlines data input by displaying a dropdown list of matching values, allowing for quick selection and reducing typing effort, ultimately contributing to faster and more accurate data management within the application.

Several .NET WinForms grid controls enable the AutoComplete cell type including:

  • DevExpress WinForms Data Grid (part of DevExpress WinForms) enhances user input with an AutoComplete Cell Type, providing real-time suggestions from bound data sources.
  • True DBGrid for WinForms (part of ComponentOne Studio WinForms by MESCIUS) improves data entry efficiency with AutoComplete cells, minimizing errors by offering context-aware suggestions.
  • Telerik UI for WinForms GridView (part of Telerik UI for WinForms) enables seamless data selection with AutoComplete cells, reducing typing effort through intelligent, customizable predictions.
  • Infragistics WinDataGrid (part of Infragistics Ultimate UI for Windows Forms) optimizes UX with the AutoComplete cell type, simplifying structured input by dynamically displaying relevant choices.
