DataGrid, 7 columns on 2 rows?

[Chris Podmore]

Is this possible? I currently have a datagrid showing 7 columns, I would like to show the 6th and 7th columns on the next row. How can I do this?

Hi Chris,

Based on my understanding, you want to do databinding to your datagrid
control, and wrap some columns to another row.

Actually, datagrid control did not expose such flexibility, but you still
can get what you want through Repeater control, do like this:

<asp:repeater id="Repeater1" runat="server">
<HeaderTemplate>
<table border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
</HeaderTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<tr>
<td><%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "job_id")%></td>
<td><%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "min_lvl")%></td>
<td><%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "max_lvl")%></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "job_description")%></td>
</tr>
</ItemTemplate>
<FooterTemplate>
</table>
</FooterTemplate>
</asp:repeater>

Please apply my suggestion to see if it works for you.

Thanks,

Jeffrey,

Thanks for the reply. I will give it a try as soon as I can. I have had to move on to another part of the project for now but when I get a chance I will give your suggestion a try.

Chris.

I haven't actually tried your suggestion, sorry. Since my original post I have purchased Infragistics NetAdvantage controls, not originally for their grid for some of their other controls. It's quite easy to implement what I was after using their webGrid control so I have gone for that.

Thanks again
Chris
