Uppercasing Cell

[Eddy Poullet]

Hi,

Is there a property for a textboxcolumn that automatically uppercases the string of a cell ?

Thanks

There is no property setting for a CellType = "TextBox" that does this.

If you set the CellType to "OriginalTextBox" you can set the CharacterCasing style property.

this.gridCashFlow[1, 1].CellType = "OriginalTextBox";
this.gridCashFlow[1, 1].CharacterCasing = CharacterCasing.Upper;

The "OriginalTextBox" is derived from System.Windows.Forms.TextBox which supports this property, but the default "TextBox" celltype is derived from RichTextBox which does not.

Sorry, but in fact it is not a cell but a whole column in GridDataBoundGrid.

Set the style as above on the GridBoundColumn object for that column.

gbc.StyleInfo.CellType = "OriginalTextBox";
gbc.StyleInfo.CharacterCasing = CharacterCasing.Upper;

where gbc is either grid.GridBoundColumns["somecol"] or grid.Binder.InternalColumns["somecol"] depending upon where you have or have not explicitly added GridBoundColumns to your grid.
