This topic demonstrates how to show a footer and set its text in C1GridView at design time and programmatically.

In the Designer

Complete the following steps:

1. Right-click the C1GridView control and then click Show Smart Tag. On the C1GridView Tasks menu, click Property builder. The C1GridView Properties window appears.
2. On the General tab, check the Show footer check box.
3. Select the Columns tab and deselect Create columns automatically at run time if it is selected.
4. Choose a column in the list of Selected columns.
5. Enter the desired text in the FooterText property.
   

In Source View

Switch to Source view and complete the following: steps:

1. Set the following text to the <cc1:C1GridView> tag:
   
   • Set the AutoGenerateColumns property to False.
   • Set the ShowFooter property to True.
   It will appear similar to the following:
   

   <cc1:C1GridView ID="C1GridView1" runat="server" DataSourceID="AccessDataSource1" AutogenerateColumns="False" ShowFooter="True">
   

2. Set the footer text for individual columns using the FooterText property by adding the following FooterText="Total Price" text within a <cc1:C1BoundField> tag, so it appears similar to the following:
   

   <cc1:C1BoundField DataField="ProductName" HeaderText="ProductName" SortExpression="ProductName" FooterText="Footer">
   

   This will set the FooterText property.
