Getting or setting this property gets or sets the ActiveLinkColor property of the object returned by the CellTemplate property. Setting this property also sets the ActiveLinkColor property of every cell in the column and refreshes the column display. To override the specified value for individual cells, set the cell values after you set the column value.
The following code example initializes the ActiveLinkColor property so that the link turns white when the user selects it. This example is part of a larger example available in the DataGridViewComboBoxColumn class overview topic.
private: void AddLinkColumn() { DataGridViewLinkColumn^ links = gcnew DataGridViewLinkColumn(); links->UseColumnTextForLinkValue = true; links->HeaderText = ColumnName::ReportsTo.ToString(); links->DataPropertyName = ColumnName::ReportsTo.ToString(); links->ActiveLinkColor = Color::White; links->LinkBehavior = LinkBehavior::SystemDefault; links->LinkColor = Color::Blue; links->TrackVisitedState = true; links->VisitedLinkColor = Color::YellowGreen; DataGridView1->Columns->Add(links); }
