Adding Template fields dynamically at Grid_InitializeRow event

I think use template type is not the best way. Why don't you use 'Hyperlink' type? For $ format, you can set on DataFormatString propery. With these way, it should be easier.

e.g WebGrid1.RootTable.Columns.GetNamedItem("Price").DataFormatString = "$##.##";

Thanks for your reply. My situation is different. So, thats not the way my boss wants. Anyway, I solved the problem using custom column type and WebControl calss.

Thanks once again.

Hi,

I want to modify a cell value at runtime. Suppose I have column which shows the price of a product and link that will open details of that product as popup. It will be exactly as follows:

$9.99 Detail

Internal code will look like:

$9.99 <a href='#' onclick='javascript:popUpWindow();'>Details</a>

I want to do this task in Grid_InitializeRow event. Something like bellow:

if(e.Row.Type == RowType.Record)
{
   if(e.Row.Cells.GetNamedItem("Price") != null)
   {
      e.Row.Cells.GetNamedItem("Price").Column.ColumnType = ColumnType.Template;

     //I want to set my text and link values from here.

   }
}

I have tried some ways but unable to add anything in this cell. How can I do it? Expecting some working code from anyone.

Thanks
