This is driving me crazy. I have a page (pageA) with a datagrid. The
datagrid's width, with no formatting is wider than the screen and no
matter how i try to set the width of a bound column, it will not
change. I have another page (pageB) with a datagrid that is smaller
than the width of the screen and if I change the width of a column on
that one, it works. Can anyone help me figure out why? I have
included my pageA code if anyone wants to take a look. Thanks.
