Re: Gridview Formatting is poor.



I would handle this at the query level (or even when the data is entered).
It allows to make sure you have the protocol info instead of relying each
time you need it on formatting to get the proper value.

Not familiar yet with the gridview. Doesn't it support databinding
expression ? In the worst case, you could also add a computed column...
