Gridbound column not holding datatype

[Jim]

I have a shopping cart where the Item Number has precedding zeros such as "00033" when it comes in to the grid it shows as "33".  I have a have the DataType set to System.String.  Any ideas on how I can fix this?  I have Q2 2008 Rad Grid.

Hello Jim,

To achieve your goal you will need to use DataFormatString property. For further information about formatting string refer to this thread.
