Align text in header of GDBG

[Atith Pagdi]

Hi,

In the PrepareViewStyleInfo event of the GridDataBoundGrid, I''m setting the e.Style.Text property for certain header columns:

e.Style.Text = "Target";

For some of these columns, I want the header text to align to the right. For this I tried the following:

e.Style.Text = "Target";
e.Style.TextAlign = GridTextAlign.Right;

But this doesn''t seem to work. I also tried setting the CellValueType to typeof(System.Int16) but it still didn''t work.

Could someone tell me why this is happening and how I can achieve the right alignment of a text field in the header? By default the text columns are center aligned in the header and left aligned in the data fields, whereas for numeric columns, the data is right aligned by default, but the header text, which I''m programmatically setting is center aligned. I want this to be right aligned as well.

Thanks,
Atith

Hi Atith,

Try this instead of TextAlign

e.Style.Text = "Target";
e.Style.HorizontalAlignment = GridHorizontalAlignment.Right;
