Forms Data Controls :: GridView Best Way To Display With Lots Of Words In A Column?
Dec 28, 2010
I like to use GridView because it is easy and flexible to work with. However, I found it quite frustration when it comes to display a column with a large chuck of words into the value of that particular column. Is there anyway to restrict how many words should only be display in a particular column rather than let it expands to cope up to display all the word. For example, I'm trying to display 20w and normally it would display
wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
but I would like to limit to 5 words in a line so it's going to be
I want to display gridview column heading when mouse over to the particular column in the gridview.I am working in VisualStudio 2005 with MS.Net2.0 framework.I don't want to use ajax.
I have a GridView where one of the colums has lots of text. Too much text to display because each rows then is almost half screensize each. Is there a way to just display the first words, and then have a function, perhaps mouse over to wiew the whole text? Tooltip maybe?
I have a pretty basic search feature on a site that queries a sqldb with a sqldarasource, and then displays the results on a page, in a panel within a Repeater. I'd like to figure out if it's possible to somehow highlight the words the user searched on as they are displayed in the search results. The code below is my repeater. Do you know of any way to manipulate the Title or Description if the words in it's body match the words searched?
I have gridview where there is column charges. If charges value is $0.00, I need to display it as BLANK or NULL that is it should be empty. I tried few DataFormatStrings but no luck.
I have been stuck on an issue that is driving me mad and I bet its simple. I have a Textbox with a gridview and a LINQ statement in code behind that populates the data source of the gridview at page load.
The Textbox is used as a filter for the where clause in the Linq statement. All works as expected however I want to be able to use more than one word as a filter. This is the problem. I take the textbox string and convert to an array
Dim aryTextFile() As String = SearchString.Split(",")
But I need to figure how to pass the values of the array as parameters for the Linq Statement. I need to return all rows that have either a match for LocationName AND/OR Address AND/OR City. I thought of something like this but it fails.
Dim db As New DCLocationsDataContext Dim q = From t In db.Locations _ Where t.City AndAlso t.LocationName AndAlso t.Address Like aryTextFile _ Select t GridView1.DataSource = q GridView1.DataBind()
I'd like to make some words of a cell in gridview Bold. For example - "MRN No.: SI0021848 Name: Cherry" like my attachment. I could query this field value from database but don't know how to make some words Bold. How to do it?
I have a textbox and a gridview which is bound to a table what I want to achieve is a solution where lets say there are two records - e.g. "1. Book and 2. Red", i want a user to type in those words and the gridview shows the results as followed;
1. Book 2. Red
I have set up the sql data source and everything and my like operator is this.
