Hello Team,

I have a table in which i have 3 columns and the values stored in the column is 1 or 0.

I am binding this to a Datagrid in Windows Application.

What i am trying to do is that the datagrid column should show Yes for 1 and No for 0.

and bind it data grid.

In short i want that the tinybit values should be converted to Yes or No depending on 1 and 0 where 1 should be converted Yes and 0 should be converted to NO

Regard's
Raj.Trivedi

0	Approaches: 1) You can use OnRowDataBound event to convert tinyint (1, 0) to Yes/No... 2) While retrieving data from databse only convert those values to Yes/No... SELECT CASE When col1 = 1 then 'Yes' ELSE 'No' END col1, CASE When col2 = 1 then 'Yes' ELSE 'No' END col2, CASE When col3 = 1 then 'Yes' ELSE 'No' END col3 FROM TableName Mark This Response as Answer -- Chandu http://www.dotnetfunda.com/images/dnfmvp.gif Raj.Trivedi, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator

Example is as follows:

 private void BindData()

        {



            //This connection string is used to connect to database

            String strConnection = "Data Source=MySYSTEM ;Initial Catalog=DBName ;User Id=UserName ;Password=Passwod ";

            //Establish SQL Connection

            SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(strConnection);

            con.Open();

            //Data table is used to bind the resultant data

            DataTable dtusers = new DataTable();

            // Create a new data adapter based on the specified query.

            SqlCommandBuilder cmd = new SqlCommandBuilder(da);

            //Fill data table

0	There ara 2 option either you can do in SQL itself or you can do in C#, performance wise SQl will be better SQL SELECT CASE When col1 = 1 then 'Yes' ELSE 'No' END col1, CASE When col2 = 1 then 'Yes' ELSE 'No' END col2, CASE When col3 = 1 then 'Yes' ELSE 'No' END col3 FROM TableName C# for(int i = 0; i < dt.Rows.Count; i++) { for(int j = 0; j < dt.Columns.Count; i++) { if (dt.Rows[i][j].ToString() == "1") { dt.Rows[i][j] = "Yes"; } else { dt.Rows[i][j] = "No"; } } } Regards, Jayakumar Selvakani Raj.Trivedi, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator

SQL
SELECT CASE When col1 = 1 then 'Yes' ELSE 'No' END col1,
CASE When col2 = 1 then 'Yes' ELSE 'No' END col2,
CASE When col3 = 1 then 'Yes' ELSE 'No' END col3
FROM TableName

C#
for(int i = 0; i < dt.Rows.Count; i++)
{
for(int j = 0; j < dt.Columns.Count; i++)
{
if (dt.Rows[i][j].ToString() == "1")
{ dt.Rows[i][j] = "Yes"; }
else
{ dt.Rows[i][j] = "No"; }
}
}
