Delphi DBGrid Format Display Values

Question

I need to format values in a DBGrid to display in a certain format ex '#,##0.00'. Any idea how to do that?

Answer 1

Each Field in your DataSet has two events: OnGetText and OnSetText. Use event OnGetText of desired fields and use Format function to format the value using a mask.

Answer 2

you can use the DisplayFormat property of the field to format.

check this sample

TFloatField(YourDataSet.FieldByName('field')).DisplayFormat := '#,##0.00';
