How
to apply multiple Cultures on salary column in Asp.net GridView
Note: Here we have discuss multiple cultures for the
single page for example each row of GridView display a record for the person
belonging to different Country
Use the code belowto get the list of all supported cultures
in Asp.net
// using this namespace
using System.Globalization;
protected void
Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string ss = "<table><tr
><th style='width:150px'>Country Name</th><th
style='width:150px'>CulturName</th>";
foreach (CultureInfo
ci in CultureInfo.GetCultures(CultureTypes.AllCultures))
{
ss += "<tr><td>" + ci.Name + "</td><td>" + ci.DisplayName
+ "<td><tr>";
}
ss += "</table>";
Literal1.Text
= ss;
}
Result
RowDataBound Event : It is raised when a record in the datasource is
bound to a row in GridView Control
use test
create table Employee
(
EmpId int primary key,
Name varchar(50),
Salary int,
CountryName varchar(50)
)

Source Code for
Default.aspx.cs…………………………..
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
public partial class Default2 :
System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs
e)
{
}
// code with RowDataBound Event........................
protected void GridView1_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs
e)
{
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{
if (e.Row.Cells[3].Text == "US")
{
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-Us");
}
else if (e.Row.Cells[3].Text == "India")
{
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-IN");
}
else if
(e.Row.Cells[3].Text == "South Africa")

}
else if
(e.Row.Cells[3].Text == "UK")
{
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-GB");
}
}
}
}
Result: Here this row is
also process with the current default Culture US ("en-Us")
Because we are
setting the thread culture for the next row basically
Note: for the above
error, solution is given below
protected void
GridView1_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{
if (e.Row.Cells[3].Text == "US")
{
//System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new
System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-Us");
int salary = Convert.ToInt32(e.Row.Cells[2].Text);
string formattedstr = string.Format(new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-Us"), "{0:c}",
salary);
e.Row.Cells[2].Text
= formattedstr;
}
else if
(e.Row.Cells[3].Text == "India")
{
int salary = Convert.ToInt32(e.Row.Cells[2].Text);
string formattedstr = string.Format(new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-IN"), "{0:c}",
salary);
e.Row.Cells[2].Text
= formattedstr;
}
else if
(e.Row.Cells[3].Text == "South Africa")
{
int salary = Convert.ToInt32(e.Row.Cells[2].Text);
string formattedstr = string.Format(new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-ZA"), "{0:c}",
salary);
e.Row.Cells[2].Text
= formattedstr;
}
else if
(e.Row.Cells[3].Text == "Malaysia")
{
int salary = Convert.ToInt32(e.Row.Cells[2].Text);
string formattedstr = string.Format(new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-MY"), "{0:c}",
salary);
e.Row.Cells[2].Text
= formattedstr;
}
else if (e.Row.Cells[3].Text
== "UK")
{
int salary = Convert.ToInt32(e.Row.Cells[2].Text);
string formattedstr = string.Format(new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-GB"), "{0:c}",
salary);
e.Row.Cells[2].Text
= formattedstr;
}
}
Then the following
error is coming up
Server

For removing the above error we will
go to the GridView source of the default page and remove the DataFormatString="{0:c}" from grid view bound field because it is a render with
salary symbol hence it cannot be converted into integer property
For Example:
<asp:BoundField DataField="Salary"
HeaderText="Salary" DataFormatString="{0:c}"
SortExpression="Salary" />
Result:
