DataGrid

Hi,

I am binding a dataset to DataGrid.

I have a field which returns decimal values.

Ex: 0.23

In dataGrid it is showing only 0 insted of 0.23!

How to format it to get the decimal value??

Thanks

In the Property Builder of the DataGrid control, select the correct Bound
Column, then in the "Data formatting expression" box add "{0:D2}.

For more information on formatting data, search on the DataFormatString
Property.

{0:D2} is the example straight out of the Visual Studio.NET Help file. Are
you sure you typed it in correctly?
