Nice hack on the formatting.

Only problem I run into is that I update the footer using the  _footerElement.innerText property and therefore loses the text-align property after update.  Anyone know which property I need to change to keep the formatting?

 If it helps anybody, I used the prior post and .NET's DataTable.Compute to get nice totals.  I had to set the CssClass for the footer as well, using !important in a few spots to override the Appletini theme I'm using (code is C#):

            gridLease.FooterCaptionCssClass = "gridFooter";
            gridLease.Columns["CurrentBalance"].Footer.Text = String.Format("{0:C}", Convert.ToDecimal(table.Compute("Sum([Current Balance])", "")));
            gridLease.Columns["FutureActivity"].Footer.Text = String.Format("{0:C}", Convert.ToDecimal(table.Compute("Sum([Future Activity])", "")));
            gridLease.Columns["ItemsOutstanding"].Footer.Text = "<p style=\"text-align: center\">" + table.Compute("Sum([ItemsOutstanding])", "").ToString() + "</p>";

Note the hack-y way that I set the text of one column to contain a paragraph with inline center style and override the right-align for one column.

 Cheers,

Thanks, for anyone's reference, I used the following example:

WebDataGrid1.Columns("ColName").Footer.Text = TotalSum.ToString

Yes, there is a Footer subobject off the BoundDataField, which has a Text property:

<ig:BoundDataField DataFieldName="Description" Key="Description" Width="400px">

<Header Text="Description" />

<Footer Text="blah" />

</ig:BoundDataField>

 Is there a way to access the footer text in the server-side code?  I need to calculate and fill the footer totals after data binding.
