DataGrid question

[Steve Caliendo]

Hi,

I am populating a DataGrid using an SQLDataReader. My question is:

How can I change the properties of a column, or get the data from a field
after the DataBind method?

When I try to reference a column, I get the error that the index must be
non-negative and less then the size of the collection. I know that there
are multiple columns because the DataGrid displays correctly.

Thanks,

Steve

Use the binding event on the DataGrid to hijack setting column values. This
allows you to easily change as the data is bound. There is a slight expense,
compared to straight binding, but it is less error prone than attempting to
get rows.

NOTE: The issue with rows may be where you are attempting to change the row
(ie, in what event). You have to play with adjustments after the data is
bound if you wish to grab rows from the DataGrid.
