simple question on column formats
posted

Hi All,

I have a DataSet-bound, web grid that I want to set specific numeric columns to a specific number of decimal places.  Nothing fancy, just set 6 decimals in column A, 3 in column B, etc...

I looked through several posts on this subject and I had thought you just set the all the column .Format properties after I DataBind the grid, ie.

foreach (UltraGridColumn column in TagUltraWebGrid.Columns)
  column.Format = "###0.0";

But that did not make any difference - I still got 4 decimal places.

I also tried to set the column format via the displayLayout band and the result was the same.  Am I missing some overriding setting that prevents Column.Format from working?

Thanks for any advice.

Corey.

    Hello CoreyW ,

     

    I know it has been a while since you poste your question here but if you still need assistance I’d be glad to help.

    Since I’m not sure which version of our product you’re using I’ve tested this on 11.1 and upon setting the Format property for the columns in the Page_Load event everything worked as expected.

    If this issue is still reproducible on your environment I’d request you to provide more information regarding the environment( IG control version, OS, Browser). Otherwise even if such an issue existed is no more reproducible with the newest versions of our controls.

     

    I’m attaching a sample with this for you reference.
