Showing Enum string value in FormGridControl

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 648

I have a FormGridControl I am trying to populate with data from a table, one column of this table is an enum value. What is the preferred way to show the actual enum string value for this instead of the underlying integer?

Are you supposed to override the init function of the grid and use the enum2Str function on each value of that column? Or is there an easier/better way?

    Hi FP_Alex,

    It should be comboBox control not string, just drag a field from datasource to a form design and AX will create control with a right type for you.
