Dynamic change cell format

[JP]

I am trying to dynamic change cell format to overide the column format, but getting nowhere.

Somewhere after InitializeComponent() I have

((SCAGridColumnDescriptor)(this.grid1.TableDescriptor.Columns["A"])).Appearance.AnyRecordFieldCell.Format = "#,###;-#,###;0";

Then I have a grid1_QueryCellStyleInfo(object sender, GridTableCellStyleInfoEventArgs e)

Here I have e.Style.Format = "#,###.#;-#,###.#;0.0";
for certain conditions. I know this statement is executed because it passes the break point on this statement, but it does nothing on the display result.

My question is which Format should I change to overwrite the column format for this particular cell?

Thanks in advance.

Hi JP,

If you just want to format the text that is displayed in a cell, you can handle the TableControlDrawCellDisplayText and set e.DisplayText there to easily control what text is drawn in the cell.

Here is a forum thread that discuss with similar issue.
