  Hi,

  I am applying the column formatting using SetSellStyle method. I can see that the styles applied to the column values as expected. However, the column filter values are still showing the raw values (no formats applied). Please find the below code I have used for the same.

  With fgGrid
  
  Dim style As CellStyle
  
  style = .Styles( lStyleName)

  		 If lNumberFormat <> String.Empty Then
                           style.Format = lNumberFormat
                      End If
                      .SetCellStyle(rowIndex, colIndex, style)
                  End With
  

  Please let me know, how can I format the filter values as well.

  Hi Nagarajan!

  You might be doing this implementation in Form_Load event. I would suggest you to do this using OwnerDrawCell event of FlexGrid. This event fires whenever the cell needs to be painted. This way, you can control cell style even after filtering the values.

  For detailed information on OwnerDrawCell event, please see this link :

  Hi Meenakshi,

  Will that be OK, if I use SetCellStyle Method inside a OwnerDrawCell.

  I remember I have seen somewhere in the forum, it may create some recursive calls.

  • Yes.
