I have a dataGridView whose dataSource is a dataTable.
My problem is that I want certain columns to be displayed in Hex. I can get that far with using something like this:
foreach (DataGridViewColumn c in grid.Columns)
{
if (DISPLAYED_IN_HEX.Contains(c.Name))
{
c.DefaultCellStyle.Format = "X";
}
}
My issue though is that I want this hex value prepended with 0x so as not to confuse anyone that they are in hexidecimal form. The values in the dataTable are various integral types. I looked into creating a custom IFormatProvider, but I don't think my coding skills are up to that par yet. Any other possible solutions?
