GridViewDataColumn DataFormatString percent input

[didier]

Hi,
I have in my gridview to input a value as percent, i have used in my GridViewDataColumn  the

DataFormatString="{}{0:P}"

it's work perfectly in display but if i use it as input, if I input 5, on lost focus, the grid display 500 % !
How can i retreive the same thing that the radmaskedtextbox, i don't want to use a datatemplate just for that.

<telerik:RadMaskedTextBox    MaskType ="Numeric" Mask="p"

Hello didier,

This would be the expected behavior. What you may try to do is to define the DataFormatString as follows:

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding StadiumCapacity}"
                                            Header="Stadium"
                                            DataFormatString="{}{0:N0}%"/>

Thanks for your quick replay and solution,
Can i hide the '%' when the value is 0 ? like the {0:P} ?

Hi didier,

I don't think that you can

Since your question is really out of the scope of Telerik support, you can read this article regarding .NET String Formatting.

I hope this helps.
