also,how do I do it if the datatype is string

<Style TargetType="{x:Type igDP:CellValuePresenter}" x:Key="RightAlignedValueStyle" BasedOn="{StaticResource SmallCellValueStyle}" >
<Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Right" />
 </Style>

This is the style i have added

<igDP:Field Name="ApproximatePrice" Label="Approximate price" Width="100">
<igDP:Field.Settings>
<igDP:FieldSettings LabelPresenterStyle="{StaticResource MultilineHeader}" CellClickAction="SelectRecord" CellValuePresenterStyle="{StaticResource RightAlignedValueStyle}" />
</igDP:Field.Settings>
</igDP:Field>

How do I right align the contents of xamdatagrid of type decimal?Please help me out, I want to display **currency which is of type decimal**. I want to have two decimal points (XXXX.XX)?

Hi Sohail,

I didn't see your question.  I don’t know if you are returning the DataRecord or the Cell value to your converter or multiple cell values.

Let me pass this to you.  It’s for an unbound field using multivalueconverter but the binding and the converter should be helpful to you.  And there is a description of other binding you might consider.

<igDP:UnboundField Name="unboundCheckBox" >

<igDP:UnboundField.Settings>

                                <igDP:FieldSettings EditAsType="{x:Type sys:Boolean}">

                                                <igDP:FieldSettings.CellValuePresenterStyle>

                                                                <Style TargetType="{x:Type igDP:CellValuePresenter}" >

                                                                                <Setter Property="Template">

                                                                                                <Setter.Value>

                                                                                                                <ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type igDP:CellValuePresenter}">

                                                                                                                                <CheckBox x:Name="unbCB">

        {

            if (values[0] == DependencyProperty.UnsetValue || values[1] == DependencyProperty.UnsetValue)

            {

                return Binding.DoNothing;

            }

            Field fld = values[0] as Field;

            DataRecord rcd = values[1] as DataRecord;

            if (null == fld || null == rcd)

                return Binding.DoNothing;

Hi,

Can you provide example/sample code for the converter which can be applied to the particular column of the xamdatagrid.
