Formatting the date display<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

In order to format the date display in an ASP.NET web page, you can use the DataFormatString property of the BoundField or TemplateField in the GridView control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s an example of how to use it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<asp:GridView ID=”GridView1″ runat=”server” AutoGenerateColumns=”False” DataSourceID=”SqlDataSource1″><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <Columns><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <asp:BoundField DataField=”Date” HeaderText=”Date” DataFormatString=”{0:d}” \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <asp:BoundField DataField=”Description” HeaderText=”Description” \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <asp:BoundField DataField=”Amount” HeaderText=”Amount” DataFormatString=”{0:C}” \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/Columns><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/asp:GridView><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this example, the DataFormatString property is set to {0:d} for the “Date” column and {0:C} for the “Amount” column. The d format specifier is used to display the date in a short date format, while the C format specifier is used to display the amount in a currency format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can use other format specifiers as well, such as g for a short date and time format, t for a short time format, and yyyy-MM-dd for a custom date format. Note that the format specifier is enclosed in braces {} and includes a placeholder {0} for the value to be formatted. The value will be replaced with the actual value from the data source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
