Formatting/Display in a DataGrid

Hi,

Is there anyway I can make a column thats databound into a hyperlink to
navigate to another page?
Suppose I have 3 columns: SortOrder, Description, UserName

for eg:
<Columns>
<asp:HyperLinkC olumn Text="View" DataNavigateUrl Field="UserId"
DataNavigateUrl FormatString="V iewInfo.aspx?id ={0}">
<HeaderStyle BackColor="#CCC CCC"></HeaderStyle>
<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign ="Center"></ItemStyle>
</asp:HyperLinkCo lumn>
<asp:BoundColum n DataField="Sort Order" HeaderText="Sor t Order"
SortExpression= "SortOrder" >
<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign ="Center" Width="12%"></ItemStyle>
</asp:BoundColumn >
<asp:BoundColum n DataField="Desc ription" HeaderText="Des cription">
<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign ="Center"></ItemStyle>
</asp:BoundColumn >
<asp:BoundColum n DataField="User Name" HeaderText="Use rName"
SortExpression= "UserName">
<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign ="Center"></ItemStyle>
</asp:BoundColumn >
</Columns>
Instead of having HyperLinkColumn with "View" as text, how can I make
"Descriptio n" or whatever column I want
into the hyperlink (with the relevant info to display) and navigate it to
"ViewInfo.aspx? id={0}
please Advice,
Stephen

using templates :-)

templates give you all teh free in the world to add something into the cell
in a row...

after the last </asp:BoundColumn >
add this for example: (just copy/paste)

<asp:TemplateFi eld>
<ItemTemplate >
<%#Eval("Descri ption")%> <br />
<asp:HyperLin k runat="server" id="myLink" text="more..."
NavigateUrl='<% # Eval("UserId", "ViewInfo.aspx? id={0}") %>' />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateFie ld>

and then tell me the result ;-)

remove the DataBinder... just Eval("name") like my example

or Eval("string{0} ", "name")

or the same using Bind("name") if you nees to pass the value!

it's the way to do in ASP.NET 2.0

I was using 2.0 - I passed directly from classic asp to asp.net 2.0, so I
never did anything in 1.x ...

sorry,

but if it works... better :-)

I just love 2.0 version ;-) and for that GridView is really nicer to work
than the old datagrid (seeing all the examples I see in both controls)

you can use the template to show normal rows (itens), the update row
(EditItem), the select row, etc...
check for templateItem under datagrid in your Help file
