Displaying only date part in DateTime column

[Ramyashree]

Hi,
I have a grid view with a column bound to a field of type DateTime... The column displays both date and time values... I want only date part to be displayed in the column... Can you please let me know how to achieve that...?

Hello Ramyashree,

You may define the the DataFormatString property of the column:

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding Established}"
         Header="Est."
         DataFormatString="{}{0:dd-mm-yyyy}"/>

Hi,    

         DataFormatString="{}{0:dd-mm-yyyy}"     is not working.... By default it displays date and time together and while editing it displays only date with a date picker for selecting date.. Once it goes out of editing mode , it displays date along with default time 00:00:00...

Thanks and Regds,
Ramya
