Hi,
I have a column named RequestNo which holds a text like this: 89-1-1
I have made my RadGridView RightToLeft and I set its font to some special font.
The column shows the specified value as 1-1-89 that is vice versa. this is natural because of RightToLeft property but this is not what I desire, I want my Grid Right To Left and show one column's content as if it were Left To Right!
I know that I can use REVERSE function of SQL Server in suppling data for the grid but I'm not sure it works well for filtering.
Is there anyway to make only one column Left To Right and leaving other columns Left To Right?
Thank you again,
Tooraj Azizi.

Hello Tooraj,

Thank you for your question.

There is a way to make the column content Left to Right by using the CellFormatting event:
void radGridView1_CellFormatting(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.CellFormattingEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Column.Name == "MyColumnName")
            {
                e.CellElement.RightToLeft = false;
            }
            else
            {
                e.CellElement.ResetValue(RadElement.RightToLeftProperty);
            }
        }

I hope this helps. If you have any additional questions, do not hesitate to ask.

Kind regards,
