void Page_Load ( Object src, EventArgs e ) {
if ( !IsPostBack ) {
ICollection h_aligns =
TypeDescriptor.GetConverter ( typeof ( HorizontalAlign ) ).GetStandardValues ( );
foreach ( HorizontalAlign h in h_aligns ) {
AlignSelect.Items.Add ( h.ToString ( ) );
}
AlignSelect.SelectedIndex = 2;
string query = "SELECT Lastname, Firstname, Address, City, Country FROM nw_Employees";
myGridView.DataSource = fetchData ( query, "northwind" );
myGridView.DataBind ( );
}
myGridView.ItemStyle.HorizontalAlign = ( HorizontalAlign ) AlignSelect.SelectedIndex;
}
