[Solved] Chaning value of DataItem in GridBoundColumn

[Daniel]

I have a GridBoundColumn that is a DateTime type. What is the best way to change the date incase there is no value for it? If a value is not set it is either null or is automatically set to the minimum date value in .net

Thank you,
Daniel

Hello Daniel,

Try adding the following code in the ItemDataBound event of the grid:
c#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
        {
            GridDataItem dataItem = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
            if (dataItem["ColumnUniqueName"].Text == " ")
                 dataItem["ColumnUniqueName"].Text = "01/01/2009";
        }
    }

Thanks
Princy.
