DataGrid and tableStyle

[Carl]

Hi, in the following code,

DataGridColumnStyle TextCol5 = new DataGridTextBoxColumn
();
TextCol5.MappingName = "fl_taxable";
TextCol5.HeaderText = "Taxable";
TextCol5.Width = 75;
ts1.GridColumnStyles.Add(TextCol5);

I will like to have a transformation done on the int
field fl_taxable from the dataset.

I will like to change the int value (enum) to is string
equivalent to be display on the grid with,
Enum.GetName(typeof(Form1.enumTAXABLE), field_value)

So how can I have that transformation function event
done/fired.

Any help will be appreciated.

Carl,

I was expecting to avoid looping trough the dataset to
perform this change, sometime the dataset could be huge.

I was expected kind of event code when display in the
grid.

I was thinking to use the datasourcechange event of the
grid to perform the change in the grid.

But I think changing the dataset itself will be easier,
I think this is the only way !

So I will do it.

Carl,

Hi Carl,

I think may be you can try another way of handling this:

You can inherit from the datagrid control, override its Paint method.
Then you can format the int value to the related enum string.

But I think handle dataset is simpler.

Hope this helps,
