[RESOLVED] GridView Footer

[snufse]

I am programatically inserting a footer row to my GridView. In cell 0 I am adding a "Select" button.

If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.Footer Then
            Dim myLinkButton As New LinkButton
            myLinkButton.Text = "Select"
            AddHandler myLinkButton.Click, New EventHandler(AddressOf ClickHandler)
            e.Row.Cells(0).Controls.Add(myLinkButton)
End If

So far no problem. Now I need to left justify the "Select" verbage in the cell. I am adding following to the code:

myLinkButton.Text = HorizontalAlign.Left

When I now display the GridView, I see a '1' in the footer cell 0 and not a "Select" anymore???

That's because you are setting the text property of link button to the enumerated value of HorizontalAlign.Left. For setting the style property you should be using e.Row.Cells[0].HorizontalAlign = HorizontalAlign.Left {haven't run the code}.

Great. That worked, thank you....
