Format a HttpWebResponse

[Casper]

I have a RadGrid with some columns inside of it. The data that is bound is to a custom class that has a HttpWebResponse property to it.

I want this property to be formatted in a specific way where I can use both the StatusCode and StatusDescription.

I am able to use one by setting "DataField" to "Response.StatusCode", but how do I format it for my liking's?

Here is the GridBoundColumn i'm using:
<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Response.StatusCode" />

And here is what im aiming for (Pseudo code):
<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Response" Format="{0}.StatusDescription ({0}.StatusCode}
/>

Where the output would for example be:
Page Not Found (404)

Hi Casper,

You should better do the formatting in ItemDataBound event. There, you can access the cell text and modify it based on values from the DataItem, e.g.:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
    {
        TableCell cell = (e.Item as GridDataItem)["Response"];
        MyCustomClass dataItem = e.Item as MyCustomClass;
        cell.Text = dataItem.StatusDescription + "(" + dataItem.StatusCode + ")";
    }
}

All the best,
