Hi I am using <%# %> for data binding in my aspx page. The values extracted are D, W & M.
Is it possible to rename the one character codes i.e. D to DAY, W to WEEK and M to MONTHLY?

ASPX code

XML

</asp:TemplateField><asp:TemplateField HeaderText="FREQUENCY:">
    <ItemTemplate>
        <asp:Label ID="lblFreq" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("Frequency") %>' />
    </ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>

Thanx

Hi,

you can solve above issue by writing code in server side.

Call the below function in the Gridview rowdatabound event.

Label lbl=(Label)e.Row.FindControl("lblFreq");

if(lbl.Text=="D")
{
lbl.Text="Day";
}
else if(lbl.Text=="M")
{
lbl.Text="Month";
}
else
{
lbl.Text="Week";
}

XML

</asp:TemplateField><asp:TemplateField HeaderText="FREQUENCY:">
    <ItemTemplate>
        <asp:Label ID="lblFreq" runat="server" Text='<%# ChangeEval(Eval("Frequency")) %>' />
    </ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>

You can add custom binding for your control, now in aspx.cs page Implement ChangeEval

for example

public object ChangeEval(object evalValue)
{
  if(evalValue.Tostring()=="D")
     return "DAY";
  else if(....)
     return ...
....
}
