Changing Column Format

[Jose Luis Melo]

Hi,

I have a table in a dataset, that was filled with a datadapter, and then bounded to a GridListcontrol. I wish to format one specific column in the grid as currency (the data type in the table is double).

I tried to do:

grdLst.Grid.ColStyles["Value"].Format= "C";

but this doesn't work. How do I do this ?

Thank you,

The Grid in a GridListControl is a virtual grid. To set any of the styles, you will need to handle the PrepareViewStyleInfo event and set the style there.

 grdLst.Grid.PrepareViewStyleInfo += new GridPrepareViewStyleInfoEventHandler(PVSI);

//....             

private void PVSI(object sender, GridPrepareViewStyleInfoEventArgs e)
{
    if( e.ColIndex == 2 && e.RowIndex > 0)
        e.Style.Format = "C";
}
