System.Web.UI.WebControls Namespace   DataGrid Class

---

Occurs after an item in the DataGrid is data-bound but before it is rendered on the page.

[ VB ]
Public Event ItemDataBound As DataGridItemEventHandler

[ C# ]
public event DataGridItemEventHandler ItemDataBound;

[ C++ ]
public: __event DataGridItemEventHandler* ItemDataBound;

In [ JScript ], you can handle the events defined by a class, but you cannot define your own.

The ItemDataBound event is raised whenever an item in the DataGrid is bound to data.

This event provides an opportunity to access each item ( or row ) before the page is finally sent to the client for display. After this event is raised, the data item is nulled out and no longer available.

This event is raised for the header, the footer, and data items.

Information related to the ItemDataBound event is passed via a DataGridItemEventArgs object to the method assigned to handle the event. The following DataGridItemEventArgs property provides information specific to this event.

Property	Description
Item	Gets the DataGridItem associated with the event.
