How to: Customize Data Formatting in the Windows Forms DataGridView Control

The following code example demonstrates how to implement a handler for the System.Windows.Forms.DataGridView.CellFormatting event that changes how cells are displayed depending on their columns and values.

Cells in the Balance column that contain negative numbers are given a red background. You can also format these cells as currency to display parentheses around negative values. For more information, see How to: Format Data in the Windows Forms DataGridView Control.

Cells in the Priority column display images in place of corresponding textual cell values. The Value property of the DataGridViewCellFormattingEventArgs is used both to get the textual cell value and to set the corresponding image display value.

                "named highPri.bmp, mediumPri.bmp, and lowPri.bmp " & _
                "residing in the same directory as the executable file.")
