GridButtonColumn formatting Numerical DataText using DataTextFormatString

[Michael]

Dear Telerik Community,

Formatting display text in a GridButtonColumn doesn't seem to work.  Is there any way of formatting numeric types?

Thanks,
Michael

GridButtonColumn displayColumn = new GridButtonColumn();
displayColumn .HeaderText = dataColumn.ColumnName;
displayColumn .DataTextField = dataColumn.ColumnName;
displayColumn .UniqueName = dataColumn.ColumnName;
displayColumn .DataTextFormatString = "{0:0.0000}";

Hello Michael,

Try setting DataType in order to format DataformatString.
C#:

GridButtonColumn displayColumn = new GridButtonColumn(); 

. . . .   


displayColumn.DataType = typeof(System.Decimal);

Thanks,
Shinu.
