Customizing the look-and-feel of your DataGrid is accomplished through the following steps:
  1. Specify data source.

    You should set the DataSource property to specify a source of data and call the DataBind() method. This method used to bind data from a source to a control.

  2. Create the Skin.

    A Skin is a collection of one CSS Style and a set of graphic files that determine the way the DataGrid is going to look. A CSS Style consists of predefined classes. Each Skin file has a predefined name, which cannot be changed. Users can only change contents of these files.

    Skin Folder content:

    CSSStyle.CSS

    GetHTML.gif GetHTMLOver.gif CntMnuAtoZ.gif CntMnuZtoA.gif
    RowFilterOn.gif RowFilterOnOver.gif RowFilterOff.gif RowFilterOffOver.gif
