Icons in grid cells

[Bidin Dinesababu]

Hai,
We are using a DataBoundGrid to display data. The grid has a Sevirity field which can have values 1,2,3. I am trying for a way to display Icons each representing this Sevirity value instead of 1,2 and 3 or strings like "High", "Medium" and "Low". Is there any way by which I can keep the column values as 1,2 and 3 and display Icons instead of these values getting displayed.

Thanks in advance,
Bidin

Try this.

1) Create an ImageList that holds your icons and set the ImageList as the style.ImageList property for the column.

this.gridDataBoundGrid1.Binder.InternalColumns[1].StyleInfo.ImageList = imageList;

2) Then handle PrepareViewStyleInfo, and there move the style.CellValue to the styleImageIndex property and set teh style.Text to "".

private void gridDataBoundGrid1_PrepareViewStyleInfo(object sender, GridPrepareViewStyleInfoEventArgs e)
{
	if(e.ColIndex == 2 && e.RowIndex > 0)
	{
		e.Style.ImageIndex = (int)e.Style.CellValue;
		e.Style.Text = "";
	}
}
