How to provide the ability to resize rows

Description:
I am trying to provide my end-users with the ability to change a specific row's height via the mouse. Is there a way to implement this feature?

Answer:
The XtraGrid doesn’t provide such a feature automatically due to the fact that it doesn't cache any data internally. Thus it can’t store different row sizes. However, you can implement this task yourself. To do this you should handle the GridView's MouseDown, MouseUp and CalcRowHeight events. Within the MouseDown and the MouseUp events you should handle row size changing. Within the CalcRowHeight event handler you should pass the valid row height for a specific row. In the attached project you will find a sample project which demonstrates this task

      Good afternoon:

      I translated the code of the project to VB.Net but it does not work as cSharp (c# works perfectly).

      Problem is it resizes all rows in the GridView when language is VB Net.
      Any Idea what I can do?

      Best,
