Different columns for alternating rows in gridview

[tsedward]

I am creating a databound gridview. The last cell of each row can,
and usually does, contain a lot of text. Is there any way that I
could drop this last cell down into the next line on the gridview?
This would mean that every other row would ignore the columns and
consist of one large column. Is this possible?

Yes, you can do this by intercepting the data binding event and writing a
second row when it binds that row.

Consider using a repeater instead of a gridview. You can make the item
template out of two rows and databind in a regular way.

Thanks for both replies. The repeater worked great.
