Gridview Currency Formatting - BoundField vs. Template Field

RCM
I'm having trouble formatting a currency value in a template field. I
have searched around and found all sorts of suggestions on how to
handle a BoundField, most importantly the necessity of setting
HTMLEncode to false in order for the format string to apply.

But I can't figure out how to apply formatting when I have a column
that is a templated field. The EditItemTemplat e is a text box and the
ItemTemplate is a label, but when I look at the properties for those
objects, I don't see anything controls the format.

Can somebody point me in the right direction?

Thanks a bunch!

I have a gridview control. In this grid view there is a column for the price of an item. Some of the prices have a dollar sign in front of it and some dont. How do I get rid of the dollar sign if it is in front of the value? My guess would be to use a template column but I dont know how to go about this. Any ideas? Below is an example of what the data looks like raw from the database: $456.95 200.89

I've chosen to implement the "optimistic concurrency" model in my application. To assist in that, I've added a ROWVERSION (TIMESTAMP) column to my main tables. I read the value of the column in my select, remember it, and then use it in the update. It works just fine when I have full control of the whole process. I want to do the same for my GridView/SqlDataSource combinations. I typically select from a view and update the corresponding...

Hi all, I have a gridview control with a bound field as outlined below. The problem is that the formatting is not happening. The data gets rendered as 12999.0000. It is being stored in a decimal data type. Any ideas? <asp:boundfield headertext="Amount" datafield="amount" dataformatstring="{0:C}"/> TIA!

I have a dropdownlist in a GridView ItemTemplate. I need to bind the ddl to an SqlDataSource, then have a value from a boundfield in the row be passed as the keyfield for select where clause. Im trying to load the ddl with a list of dates from another table keyed on GridView row field that only apply to this row. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

How do you enable a check box in the GridView. I selected Checkbox Field in the Columns of the GridView, and the check box shows up in the Grid view, but it is disabled. How do I enable it so I can check/uncheck it. Also, what event do I use to check it for a value? Any articles out there? -- Chris Davoli

Hi, I have a GridView and a SqlDataSource controls on a page. The SqlDataSource object uses stored procedures to do the CRUD operations. The DataSource has three columns one of which - "Modified" of type DateTime - is hidden since it should not be edited by a user. The system handles the update for this column. So, I have hidden (Visible=false) this column on the grid. In order to access the value in this field, I have created a...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
