changing the gridview header text

[fredd00]

hi
i'm trying to change the gridview columns header text

the columns are not auto generated, i have set specific headertext
values for each column

i want to change the header text based on the specific header text. i
want to load a new text from a global resource file.

what i'm actually trying to do and is not working :

protected void RowDataBound(ob ject sender, GridViewRowEven tArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowT ype.Header) //
DataControlRowT ype.DataRow
{
foreach (TableCell tc in e.Row.Cells)
{
string s =
(string)GetGlob alResourceObjec t("General", tc.Text);
if (s != null)
{
tc.Text = s;
}
}
}
}

the problem is that tc.Text is always ""
if i'm going through a DataControlRowT ype.DataRow there is text in
tc.Text

any idea when the header text if filled in ?

Try RowCreated event.

How do you set the headers?

they are in the grid view declaration

<Columns>
<asp:BoundFie ld DataField="titr e" HeaderText="Tit le"
SortExpression= "titre" meta:resourceke y="BoundFieldRe source1" />
<asp:BoundFie ld DataField="Desc ription"
HeaderText="Des cription" SortExpression= "descriptio n"
meta:resourceke y="BoundFieldRe source2" />
<asp:BoundFie ld DataField="Lang ue" HeaderText="Lan gue"
SortExpression= "langue" meta:resourceke y="BoundFieldRe source3" >
<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign ="Center" />
</asp:BoundField>
<asp:BoundFie ld DataField="Dure e"
HeaderText="Dur ation" SortExpression= "Duree"
meta:resourceke y="BoundFieldRe source4" >
<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign ="Right" />
</asp:BoundField>
<asp:BoundFie ld DataField="STD" HeaderText="STD "
SortExpression= "std" meta:resourceke y="BoundFieldRe source5" >
<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign ="Center" />
</asp:BoundField>
<asp:BoundFie ld DataField="ID_O ffre" HeaderText="ID"
meta:resourceke y="BoundFieldRe source6" />
</Columns>

when are the values inserted in the grid and when can i retrieve them ?

i set the header text in the gridview declaration

<asp:BoundFie ld DataField="titr e" HeaderText="Tit le"

<asp:BoundFie ld DataField="Desc ription"

meta:resourceke y="BoundFieldRe source6" />
</Columns>
when does the header text binding occur , when can i retrieve the
header text values ?

[fredd00]

here is my solution that works :

protected virtual void RowDataBound(ob ject sender,
GridViewRowEven tArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowT ype.Header)
{
foreach (TableCell cell in e.Row.Cells)
{
foreach (Control ctl in cell.Controls)
{
if (ctl.GetType() == typeof(LinkButt on))
{
string s =
(string)GetGlob alResourceObjec t("General", "title");
if(s !=null)
{
((LinkButton)ct l).Text = s;
}
}
}
}

}
}

[fredd00]

oups her is the fixed one

protected virtual void RowDataBound(ob ject sender,
GridViewRowEven tArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowT ype.Header)
{
e.Row.Cells[5].Visible = false;
//e.Row.Cells[5].Text = string.Empty;
e.Row.Cells[5].Width = Unit.Pixel(1);

foreach (TableCell cell in e.Row.Cells)
{
foreach (Control ctl in cell.Controls)
{
if (ctl.GetType() == typeof(LinkButt on))
{
LinkButton btn = (LinkButton)ctl ;
string s =
(string)GetGlob alResourceObjec t("General", btn.Text);
if(s !=null)
{
btn.Text = s;
}
}
}
}

}
}

[fredd00]

here is the fix

foreach (DataControlFie ldCell cell in e.Row.Cells)
{
foreach (Control ctl in cell.Controls)
{
LinkButton link = ctl as LinkButton;
if (link != null)
{
string s =
(string)GetGlob alResourceObjec t("General", link.Text);
if (s != null)
{
link.Text = s;
}
}
}
}
