DataType Property

Specifies the data type for cells modified by the user in this column.

Syntax
C#
Copy
 public GridColumnDataType DataType { get; set; }
Remarks

When user adds a new item or edit an existing item on the client side, GridColumn uses this property to determine the type of value entered by the user. This type is ultimiated reflected through GridCell.Value property.

For example, if a TextBoxColumn's DataType is set to Integer and user enters a value of "123", then the corresponding GridCell.Value would return an Int32 value of 123, instead of a String value of "123".

The default value is Auto, which is translated to different values based on the type of the column:

When the column is... GridColumnDataType.Auto is translated to...
CheckBoxColumn Boolean
DateTimeColumn DateTime
All other columns String
