Help: RadGrid convert integer value to string or bool

[Gábor]

HI!

Here is my problem:

I have a List of objects. My objects contain multiple data fields, and I want to browse and edit them with a telerik RadGrid control. The grids datasource is the list of the objects. The objects have an integer data field, what I'd like to replace in the grid with something else.
So if the fields value is 0 then a "No" string should appear in the grid in place of the number. In other cases the "Yes" would be the text in the grid. Checked and unchecked checkboxes would be also perfect.
Sorry for my bad English,
Thanks

Hi,

Try the following code to change the text based on datafield value.
C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
 {
    if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
     {
        GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
         if (item["UniqueName"].Text == "1")
         {
            item["UniqueName"].Text = "yes";
         }
          if (item["UniqueName"].Text == "0")
         {
            item["UniqueName"].Text = "no";
         }
    }
}

Thanks,
Shinu.

Still doesn't work.
Here is the column:

<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="aktivalt" HeaderText="Aktív" UniqueName="akt"/>

"aktivalt" is the integer field of the class.
I copypasted your code and changed the "UniqueName" to "akt" .
The error message I recieved: "Cannot find a cell bound to column name 'akt' ".

Update: It's working. The problem was caused by the rows of the detailtables. I just had to put your code in a try block to ignore the grid rows without "akt".

Thank You!
