Decimal Column

[Nadia Sangiovanni]

Hi Experts,

I add decimal columns into my grid. My application is base on the example GridView/Columns/Column type example.

My problem is when I try to set the appropriate DecimalPlaces no change appear to the grid view. For example, it show 500.000 instead of 500.

I try to do a modification to the code of the Telerik Grid example and change the numeric column decimal places from 0 to 2 and I got the same result then in my application; decimal place didn't change and the numeric column still show 0 decimal places...

What I am doing incorrectly?

Thanks
Nadia

Hello Nadia Sangiovanni,

In order to show a formatted value for you column, you must handle the CellFormatting event of RadGridView:

if (e.CellElement.ColumnIndex == 0)
{
    e.CellElement.Text = String.Format("{0:N3}", ((GridDataCellElement)e.CellElement).Value);
}

The DecimalPlaces property of Decimal column is used to format the value only in edit mode when the GridSpinEditor is active.

Sincerely yours,
