Hi!
I'm trying to set the format of certain columns in my UltraGrid, what I want is that only shows 2 decimal places from the first moment I bind the information. The datatype in the database of this column is decimal (28,8). I've tried to set the MaskInput but this only works when I'm editing the cell, when I end editing, the cell gets the original formating of the database. I've also tried to change de DataType of the column in the DataTable after this is filled, but is not possible because I cannot change DataType of a column once it has data. Also, I've tried to set the Format property of the UltraGridColumn but this property is ignored when the column is bound to a data table .
Is another chance to set the display format of the decimal column since the moment I bind the data?
The property you need to set is the Format property. I don't know what you are referring to when you say this property is ignored for bound columns. That is certainly not the case. The Format property will work on any column, bound or unbound.
