[Solved] How to set column header text dynamically

[Stephen]

Hi,

I have a couple of columns which the data always returns the current qtr and the next quarter costs. I have labelled these CQ C and NQ C...as the quarter returned in these is based on todays date and which quarter we are in.

How can I, when the data is bound, rewrite the column headings to read Q1-08, Q2-08 - so I dont have to hard code the quarter names, and dont have to use cryptic descriptions.

Thanks

Hi Stephen,

You can dynamically set the column header text as shown below.

CS:

 protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridHeaderItem)
        {
            GridHeaderItem header = (GridHeaderItem)e.Item;
            header["columnUniqueName"].Text = "CustomHeaderText";
        }
   }

Thanks
Shinu.
