When a radGrid column is a non-templated regular column, and the database field is empty, I see the gridlines ok, eg using skin Outlook2007:

<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="FileName" HeaderText="FileName"   
    SortExpression="FileName" UniqueName="FileName">  
</telerik:GridBoundColumn> 

But, when I convert the column to a template column, and the field is empty or it contains only spaces, the gridlines disappear for that cell:

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn DataField="FileName" HeaderText="FileName"   
    SortExpression="FileName" UniqueName="FileName">  
    <EditItemTemplate> 
        <asp:TextBox ID="FileNameTextBox" runat="server"   
            Text='<%# Bind("FileName") %>'"></asp:TextBox> 
    </EditItemTemplate> 
    <ItemTemplate> 
        <asp:Label ID="FileNameLabel" runat="server"   
            Text='<%# Eval("FileName") %>'></asp:Label> 
    </ItemTemplate> 
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn> 
 

Why is this? And how can I work around this problem?

Thanks, Steve
