Only first value of column shown

[Andreas]

In a GridView with a lot of rows I would in first column only unique value shown; this means the cell text should be empty if the value of the cell is the same as the value in the prior row.
How can I do this?

Its a little bit similar to grouped columns

best regards

Hi Andreas,

 

You may create your own custom column and to implement the behaviour you described either by predefing the CellTemplate for this column or through overriding the CreateCellElement method of a GridViewColumn. Refer to the following resources for further reference:
