alter column text based on another column

[Jim]

I have a radgridview with two columns one bound to data and one unbound.
I want to set the cell on the unbound column to the text on the bound column but via some code ( example upper case the text, but could be any code )
Thus
Jimmy   JIMMY
Alan      ALAN
Fred      FRED

I tried playing with the row loaded event but could not seem to alter the text.
Suggestions please
Thanks
Jim

Hello Jim,

I have prepared an example project using a converter. It is quite a simple one, but utilizing this approach you can execute much more complex custom logic than just converting string to upper case.

Sound good I will investigate.
Most times people just need pointing in the right direction.

Similar to what I want but I wanted to do it on a row basis.
Typically in the celledit ended I want to set the next field in the row.
I tried this

Private Sub dgrLandrulecode_CellEditEnded(sender As System.Object, e As Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridViewCellEditEndedEventArgs) Handles dgrLandrulecode.CellEditEnded
    Dim cell As GridViewCell = e.Cell
    Dim row As GridViewRowItem = cell.ParentRow
    Dim lrc As Landrulecode = DirectCast(row.Item, Landrulecode)
    lrc.Servicedescription = "Wibble"
    lrc.ServiceTypeCode = "Fred"
    Dim x As Integer = 0
End Sub

Now ServiceTypeCode was the cell I edited and yes that does change to "Fred"
But Servicedescription  is the next field along and does not change to Wibble.
It's like it was read only or not editable ???
Can I do this or am I going about this completely wrong ?

Hi Jim,

Using this approach, the RadGridView is not notified of any other changes than setting the property respective to the edited cell. In order to make it work,  you may try implementing INotifyPropertyChanged on your business object class.
