Binding a formater and parser to a column....

[Jonathan Guidry]

is there anyway to set the binding of a column or cell similar to a System.Windows.Forms.Binding?

I use the following code to format data from a dataview to a textbox. Is it possible to do a something similar to a cell in the gridControl?

IE
Binding col1Binding = new Binding("Column1",this.catalogDataSet1.Tables["Table1"].DefaultView, "Column1");
col1Binding.Format += new ConvertEventHandler(column1_Format);
col1Binding.Parse +=new ConvertEventHandler(column1_Parse);

textBox1.DataBindings.Add( col1Binding );

GridControl.Column["xyz"].DataBindings.Add( col1Binding )

Thanks,
Jonathan

Check out the SaveCellFormattedText and QueryCellFormattedText events. Maybe also SaveCellText and QueryCellText.

These events are called to convert the cells value into the string to be displayed in te cell and vice versa.
