I am trying to figure out how to trim the trailing spaces off the Url and the Text fields. Both are coming from a linqdatasource.

I have tried a couple things but without success.

Hope someone can lead me in the right direction.

Thanks Paul

                                            DataTextFormatString="{0:G}">         
                                        </telerik:GridHyperLinkColumn>

Hello Paul,

The RadGrid event, which is normally used to modify stuff related to the datasource is ItemDataBound.
