.NET Forum / ASP.NET / General / March 2008Global Formating of Text Fields
I am looking for a way to apply a format by data type. For example, I would like to format all dates as {0:d} without having to do each by hand. I am using themes and looked around there but couldn't find anything. Thanks. You can make a user control or you can inherit your own textbox from the TextBox.

Yes, that will work for textboxes, but I want to do this for all text fields including Grid and Detail controls. I can convert to template fields and use a custom control, but that puts me back to having to play with each instance. > You can make a user control or you can inherit your own textbox from the > TextBox.
