GridViewDataColumn DataFormatString leading zero

[Think Tank]

Hi,

May I know how to set the data format for a numeric field like ID with leading zeroes in the gridview? I tried using DataFormatString="{}{0:00000000}" but did not worked.

How can I also format decimal numbers to display with comma and two decimal numbers? For example 2350.2 would be displayed as 2,350.20

Thanks..

Hi Think Tank,

We had a little bug with the DataFormatString, but we have fixed it and we will release a Latest Internal Build later today or on Monday. With the Latest Internal Build, the DataFormatString property should work properly.

Once you upgrade to the Latest Internal Build you will be able to specify all kinds of string formats.

If you want to learn how to define various string formats, please take a closer look at this article.

I hope this helps.

Hello Mark,

This thread (and the whole forum) is related to RadGridView for WPF. If you have any troubles with the ASP.NET Grid - please use the respective forum.
