hi,
Am new to Sharepoint development. and am not really getting what does this statement mean.
Create a new Column of type Calculated - put some logic in it like so
=IF(AND....

Could you give some more information on how to create a column of calculated.

Thanks.
Manju.

Hey Oscar, this is awesome... i have been looking all over for information on adding images in a calculated field...

I have but one request. Can you expand the view of the XML excerpt? To include some of the information surrounding the <Switch></switch> section?

Thanks
Phil

Hello,
How can i change the MenuTemplateId of SPMenuField in an SPGRIDVIEW? Basically i need different MenuItems in each row. [Otherwise, disabling some MenuItems in some row would do.] i assumed that it could be possible with the following idea.


public void SPGriView1_OnRowCreated(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
SPMenuField spMenuField = (SPMenuField)e.Row.Cells[1].FindControl("spMenuField";
try
{
if (e.Row.DataItem != null)
{
//datatablePublications --> DataSource i.e. Datatable
DataRow drPublication = datatablePublications.Rows[e.Row.DataItemIndex];
string strStatus = drPublication["Locked"].ToString();
if (strStatus == "true"
spMenuField.MenuTemplateId = "PublicationLocked";
else if (strStatus == "false"
spMenuField.MenuTemplateId = "PublicationUnlocked";

}
}

catch { }

//spMenuField.MenuTemplateId = "PublicationUnlocked";
}

but it ended up with compilation error, saying that-cannot convert from "System.Web.UI.Control" to "Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls.SPMenuField"


Is this a the way i can accomplish this.Or please let me know, if there is a better way of doing it.

Excellent post, and the perfect solution to a problem i have been having.

I have one question however, if someone uses an image of a large size, will this display those images as well on the list? the concern here being that large images will cause a performance issue.

Thanks
Phil
