Hi,
I have a requirement where if the cell content is "Y" i should display "Yes" and if it is "N" it should display "No". for this i am using. For this i am writing a EqualToConditionalFormatRule. my code is as follows
EqualToConditionalFormatRule MyRule = new EqualToConditionalFormatRule();
MyRule.Value = strColVal; //this is "Y"
MyRule.StyleScope = StyleScope.Cell;
Style style = new Style();
style.TargetType = typeof(ConditionalFormattingCellControl);
Setter setter = new Setter();
setter.Property = ConditionalFormattingCellControl.ContentProperty;
setter.Value = item.Value.RuleReplacementString;// this is "Yes"
style.Setters.Add(setter);
MyRule.StyleToApply = style;
dataGrid.Columns.DataColumns[item.Value.ColumnName].ConditionalFormatCollection.Add(MyRule);
But nothing happens.My cell values "Y" is not replaced with "Yes".
I need to do this in code behind since my rules are loaded dynamically.
Can you tell me where i am going wrong.
You would probably be better off using a ValueConverter on the column rather then a ConditionalFormatting rule.
The following post explains how to create a valueConverter.

Hi Darrel as your sugession i ghave created the convertor class and bind it to my column.
But my conditions are loaded dynamicaaly at runtime say i got two conditions loaded for a perticular column where the first condition cnahges the columns cell content from Y to Yes and the other rule states that IF content is N then NO. problem is if one condtion for a column it works fine. How to add more that one convertor conditions to a column.
this is loaded at run time.
<DictReplacementRuleConfig type="map">
<
i id="IsAvailable.ReplacementRule" type=".Sales.Controls.Models.ReplacementRuleConfig">
RuleAppliedOn value="Column"/>
ColumnName value="IsAvailable"/>

when i iterate this dictonary
Dictionary<string, ReplacementRuleConfig
> dictReplacementRuleConfig = viewmodelobj.dictReplacementRuleConfig;
&& dictReplacementRuleConfig.Count > 0)
{
dictReplacementRuleConfig)
//Infragistics.Controls.Grids.ColumnBase col = dataGrid.Columns[item.Value.ColumnName];
//Binding binding = new Binding(item.Value.ColumnName.ToString()) { Mode = BindingMode.TwoWay, ConverterParameter = item.Value, Converter = (valueConvobj as IValueConverter) };
//(Infragistics.Controls.Grids.Column)dataGrid.Columns[item.Value.ColumnName.ToString()]).DataMemberBinding = binding;
((Infragistics.Controls.Grids.

)dataGrid.Columns[item.Value.ColumnName.ToString()]).ValueConverterParameter = item.Value;
}
IValueConverter
culture)
});
strColName = strarr[0];
strColVal = strarr[1];
.IsNullOrEmpty(str))
.Empty;
try
(str == strColVal)
obj.RuleReplacementString;
catch
str;
If you are using a value converter you only get one, so it needs to do all the work for you. Since you can implement IValueConverter on any object the object that will be the value converter could have other information on it to use.
yes did just that. i changed my convertor class code.
