ToolTip in a Datagrid? (resolved)

i used the code below to set the tooltip of an item once you click on it BUT how can you load the tooltip when the datagrid is loaded?

VB Code:

Dim dgCellDiag As TableCell = e.Item.Cells(3)
        Dim dgDiag As String = dgCellDiag.Text
 
        Select Case e.CommandName
 
            Case Is = "diag"
 
                e.Item.ToolTip = dgDiag
 
        End Select

You can use the datagrid's ItemDataBound handler.

The event gets fired each time a Ds row gets added to the grid.

Example:

VB Code:

Private Sub Dg_ItemDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGridItemEventArgs) Handles Dg.ItemDataBound
 
 
If e.Item.ItemType = ListItemType.AlternatingItem Or e.Item.ItemType = ListItemType.Item Then
 
     
     'do something
 
End if
 
End Sub

That will affect all the items in the Dg, not touching the header or the footer.

EDIT: my vbcode tag it's not working?

this is what i did... and thank you for the idea.

VB Code:

Private Sub dgService_ItemDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGridItemEventArgs) Handles dgService.ItemDataBound
 
        Dim dgCellDiag As TableCell = e.Item.Cells(3)
        Dim dgCellProc As TableCell = e.Item.Cells(5)
        Dim dgDiag As String = dgCellDiag.Text
        Dim dgProc As String = dgCellProc.Text
 
        e.Item.Cells(2).ToolTip = dgDiag
        e.Item.Cells(4).ToolTip = dgProc
 
    End Sub
