Question on template column
Hi,
I have a datagrid DG which will display several columns of data. One of the columns, which is display-only, is a status field showing "Yes" or "No" according to the data value "Y" or "N". So I change the column to a template column and try to add a listBox control with two items added. It seems to be fine until I display it in the browser. I find that I could change the value in the listBox. Although there is no Save button or function to store changes back to database, I would like to know how to prevent the changing of listBox value.
Thank you very much.

If you don't want the user to be able to change the value, why not just print "Yes" or "No" rather than use a listbox?

Hi Phil Weber,
Thank you and that is a good idea. However, I don't know how to code for printing "Yes"/"No". Do I need to code in the template or ...?
Please advise. Thanks

Thanks Phil Weber,
I have read the example and it really gives me some hints. But I would like you to explain a bit further that where should these codes put? If the data value is not "Y"/"N" but is other characters, e.g. "P"/"S"/"T", what should it compare ?
** I am sorry that I make a mistake: This question should be put in .NET Technical instead of ASP.NET.
