Hi All

Using VB.Net with a datagrid which shows a column called status - the values
can be 0 to 6.
Is there anyway of formatting this column show the numeric value is
translated to a more readable test one.
Example
0 to New Job
6 to Complete

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Couple of ideas.

Custom formatting

Place a combobox in the grid to only allow user to select good values.
