Format Cell to Proper Case

[Dave]

What is the recommended approach to converting the contents of a Grid cell to Proper Case using the vb.net command strConvert( <string> , VbStrConv.ProperCase)? Is it possible to do this in the code-behind page? In this case the column is GridBoundColumn.

Thanks,
Dave

Hi,

Try the following code to achieve your scenario.
VB:

Protected Sub RadGrid2_ItemDataBound(sender As Object, e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs)
    If TypeOf e.Item Is GridDataItem Then
        Dim item As GridDataItem = DirectCast(e.Item, GridDataItem)
        item("Uniquename").Style.Add("text-transform", "uppercase")
    End If
End Sub

Thanks,
Shinu.

Hello,

<Columns>

                    <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Name" UniqueName="Name" HeaderText="Name">
                    </telerik:GridBoundColumn>

</Columns>

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)

    {

        if (e.Item is GridDataItem)

        {

            GridDataItem item = e.Item as GridDataItem;

            // "Name" is column unique name

            string strName = item["Name"].Text; // Get bound column Text

            item["Name"].Text = "Your Converted Text"; // Assign Formated text to bound column
                 // Ex:
                 //item["Name"].Text = (item["Name"].Text).ToUpper();


        }

    }
