Need help with RadGrid column size

[Matt]

I want the column of my radgrid to be the width of the content. I have many columns so there is always a horizontal scrollbar, which is fine. Table  Layout is set to auto. UseStaticHeaders is set to true. In IE8 the column are way bigger than they need to be. They are about twice the width of the content. When I use IE7 or IE8 in compatibility mode the columns are the correct width. When I UseStaticHeaders to false, the columns are the correct width.  Something is messed up with IE8 and static headers. Using Q1 2010 SP2

Hi Matt,

Note that when scrolling is enabled and UseStaticHeaders is True, the grid columns should declare HeaderStyle.Width. Therefore I suggest that you try setting fixed width to your columns through HeaderStyle.Width and let me know how it goes.

I don't want fixed width. I have many columns and you wouldn't be able to see everything without a horizontal scroll bar. I want a static header and autosize columns

Hello Matt,

We will need a sample page in order to reproduce the problem and see what causes it. Thank you in advance.
