Question

I am using an ASP Data Grid I am Binding the data field,Header Text dynamically through code behind(c#).

I am also setting the style of the column dynamically all are working fine but one of the Column Horizontal-align.Center is not working .

I have checked if the style is getting overridden but it is not…

This the block of code giving an issue:

        BoundField field4 = new BoundField();
        field4.DataField = dtdata.Tables[0].Columns["data"].ToString();
        field4.HeaderText = "Percentage%";
        field4.DataFormatString = "{0:N1}%";
        field4.SortExpression = "data";
        field4.ItemStyle.HorizontalAlign = HorizontalAlign.Center;
        grdMarginGrid.Columns.Add(field4);

Can anyone help me in recognising where the issue is..

Thanks in advance,
Divya.

Answer 1

I think your other styles overriding your new styles.

You can do something like this

Try adding a CSS class to your gridview from your ASPX code, and assign following styles to your class.

 <asp:GridView CssClass="grid" runat="server">
    <!-- your options -->
 </asp:GridView>

.grid td, .grid th{
  text-align:center;
}

You can add CSS class from code behind also..

This will set all your columns text to center in your gridview
