Hi,

Is there anyway to format a cell such that it displays every number as
a floating point with both numbers to the right of the decimal
displayed irregardless of the number. For example the number 23.00
would be displayed as "23.00" rather than "23".

Any help out there?

Thanks so much
Steve

Hi,

Try the "n2" format for this column...

... and do not forget to set HtmlEncode to "false"

<asp:BoundField DataField="SomeNumber" DataFormatString="{0:N2}"
HtmlEncode=false/>
