Forms Data Controls :: Can Increase The Rowspan Of A Bound Field Column's HeaderText In A Gridview
Jul 8, 2010
I have a grid that is built as well as populated dynamically through c# code. The grid has 3 columns(3 bound fields). And data is being populated in those bound fields through c# code programatically.
Elaborating my question: I have 3 bound field columns(col1, col2 & col3) . I have to increase the rowspan of col2 and col3 headertext's to 2 i.e I want the col2 and col3 header texts to span across two row cells. But the col1 header text should span across just 1 row. And the extra rowscell that is created under col1 due to the increase in the rowspans (of col2 and col3 boundfield headertexts) should be populated with some random text, i.e something like XXXXX
I have a GridView whose AutoGenerateColumns="False". However, I don't want to statically specify the HeaderText for the columns in HTML markup. Rather I'd like to set the HeaderText to be the name of the underlying SQLDataSource column name. How can I do this?
I have this lastname column and address column. The address obviously is longer so it makes the gridview to increase its height which I don't want to happen. What I want is to increase the column width of the address in gridview that will suit the long text inside it. How could I do it in C#? Currently this are my codes:
I'm hitting a wall trying to format a boundfield of a gridview. I've tried suggestion about setting the htmlencode to false, but that didn't make a difference.The column I am trying to format is:<asp:BoundField DataField="FromDate" HeaderText="Start Date" DataFormatString="{0:MM/dd/yyyy}" HtmlEncode="False" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="WorkPreference" HeaderText="WorkPreference" HeaderStyle-HorizontalAlign="Left"> <HeaderStyle HorizontalAlign="Left" /> </asp:BoundField> dr["WorkPreference"] = sa.WorkPreference ( This is how I bind the data to a DataRow)
The example of the data which gets bound to this column is like the following:
Communications and Marketing Officers; Environmental Assessors; Geologists and Geosciences; Geospatial/Spatial Information Officers;
What I want is that the data should be presented to the user like the following:
Communications and Marketing Officers Environmental Assessors Geologists and Geosciences Geospatial/Spatial Information Officers
In short: I basicaly want to put a break where there is a colon and then bind the data to the gridview. It looks like simple but if you can let me know.
Below is the code behind for a simple aspx page. The web form contains one GridView (GridView1) and one label (Label1). I create a Data Table, then add a row to the table. I then DataBind my GridView to the DataTable. (so far so good) When I run the page I do see the GridView and the single row of data. However the checkbox shown is not enabled, meaning the user cannot uncheck or check it. (As if was not enabled)

I have a gridview control bound to a sqldatasource in c#. In the rowdatabound event I look at a value in a cell and use a function to evaluate the value and depending on that value I populate an added unbound column in my bound datagrid to show an excalmation point. I now want to sort by the column with the excalmation point.
i am implementing a update query module.i am displaying all fields from a table for a term searched. well now i am implementing update option for the record which are displayed, i have like 70 columns in my table, and i want to know how to restrict some selected fields to be only read only while the form can be updated ?Like if user select to update a record then some selected field such as "Timestamp, UID etc some selected fields" remains READ ONLY !
I have a gridview which is binded to a Sqldatasource. I would like to replace a column data field value to 'Not Applicable' if that column has got a value of 2 in database.
I have a Gridview, lets call it GVDistinctDate which displays Distinct Date in one column only. For example: I got 5 rows, and 1 column where the column only display distinct dates such as 02/04/2010 | 03/04/2010 | 04/04/2010 | 05/04/2010 | 06/04/2010 where obviously this dates come from a table in the database.
Now i want to take those dates in GVDistinctDate and assign it to another gridview, lets call it GVReport, as column Header Text. For this GVReport, the first column would be StudentID where a list of studentid will be displayed, and then starting from the second column onwards, where the Header Text would be the dates from GVDistinctDate, will display a Status of absent or present according to the studentID and the corresponding date. How do it get the dates from GVDistinctDate into the column Header Text of GVReport?
AND how do it display the Present or Absent status based on the studentID in column 1 GVReport and the dates on the Header Text? Below are the codes of how i got the distinct date into GVDistinctDate
[Code]....
The code below is for GVReport and the comments are where i tried to put in the dates into the column header text.

There is a problem here: GVReport.Columns(k).HeaderText = headerText Error:Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. Parameter name: index
In a gridview, i have a column which displays an Amount. the amount displayed can be negative / positive. When there is a negative value, suppose for eg, the amount is -15000, in the grid view it showsis there a way where i can increase the width of this particular column.
am binding a gridview to datatable ...and now i want to add a linkbutton/hyperlink as one of the columns in gridview (similar to checkbox field) ...am adding the Lbtn inside a template field ,but i want that column to come as last column ..but its coming as first column,,,how to acheive that??
moreover ,whn i clk on eack linkbutton a pop-up window has to come with submit and save and close buttons and functionality(is it better to use linkbutton or hyperlink??)...am using vs 2005
I have a gridview which I have databinded via the quick config facility, but I need to databind one column to a completely different sql table data field - how do I do this?
If I go into Gridview tasks and select the column and edit the data binding parameter but what is the format for a table outside the source definition for the the rest of the gridview?
I want to add boundfield to the Detailsview control at the run time. The data is coming from the dataset, which is fetching data from SqlDataAdapter. I tried using the following code
string st = "select * from tbrob,tbemp,tbcty,tbcmp where robfircod=" + TextBox1.Text.ToString() + " and robempcod=empcod and robctycod=ctycod and robcmpcod=cmpcod";
