DataGrid - showing 'null'

Hi. Is there a way to make a datagrid display the word "Null" (or something
similar to that effect - as long as its not just a blank) in the
corresponding cell whenever the data value of particular (row, column) is
set to null?.. There is no guarantee that the "type" of the column is a
string. Is there a setting in DataGrid where I can make this happen?..
Thanks.

Add a DataGridTableSt yle to your grid. Then in the DataGridColumnS tyle for
the column in question, set its NilLText property to whatever you want.

G'day, After doing much searching and pinching bits of ideas from here there and everywhere I came up with a fairly 'clean' solution of including a comboBox into a dataGrid column.

I have a form with two DataGrids, which are kept in sync manually via Stored PROCEDURE calls. That is, when a record is selected on the first grid, a stored PROCEDURE is CALLed to Fill() the next second DataGrid's DataSource. All that works very well. And, when there are no records to display, it is simply left blank. My issue is that when...
