How to customize Footer in GridView. [Resolved]

The issue is solved through the below code. Thanks to my friend Siva.

Suppose, if the column count is m.
Include Onrowdatabound method with gridviewroweventarguments e.
Under which,

I took a literal control lit to display my message in the footer.

int m = e.Row.Cells.Count;

for (int i = m - 1; i >= 1; i--)

            {

                e.Row.Cells.RemoveAt(i);  // which removes the other cells leaving one cell in the row

            }

            e.Row.Cells[0].ColumnSpan = m; // now i'm expanding my row cell with colspan=num of columns

            e.Row.Cells[0].Controls.Add(lit);

Awesome Coding !! :)

Hi Megan,
Thanks for the reply.
Im afraid to say the referenced links were not giving me the complete solution.

Actually, my problem is to render the summary info/something in to the Gridview footer, with not in to each cells(i.e each column level) like aggregate displayed in the above links. But, to set the whole row as one cell.

If im taking the colspan,then extra cells are getting added and gridview is expanding.

Please, can you suggest me any further.

Thanks a ton..!!,

Awesome Coding !! :)

JavaScript for Footer

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function getScrollBottom(p_oElem)
{
return p_oElem.scrollHeight - p_oElem.scrollTop - p_oElem.clientHeight;
}
</script>
Code behind bind the data source to gridview
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Dim dt As New DataTable
dt.Columns.Add("C1")
dt.Columns.Add("C2")
Dim drRow As DataRow
For i As Integer = 0 To 10
drRow = dt.NewRow
drRow(0) = "C1" & i
drRow(1) = "C2" & i
dt.Rows.Add(drRow)
Next
Me.gvDemo.DataSource = dt
Me.gvDemo.DataBind()
End Sub

with in a panel write your grid view and we can use div also

Hi Sarath,
Thanks for your reply.

I think,the info in the above response is basically about displaying a gridview. I was asking about the footer customization.

Anyway, i got the solution.

Thanks,
