Can't change formatting on DTC Grid

[aschaffer]

I have been having a very weird (and annoying problem). When I attempt to change the formating of a DTC Grid the formatting doesn't save about 80% of the time. I can be in source view, change formating (text color for example), click on design view and it has reverted back to before the change already. It makes no difference if I save between making the change and changing view, and if I just save and close the document the change doesn't happen either. Other changes to the DTC work fine, I can change the fields with no problem and the changes stay, as do any changes to the formating of the page itself. I already have SP5 installed. Anyone have any idea? -Asher

I have added CSS formatting to the gridDTC code (it adds class="gridDTC_TD" or similar) - by editing the DATAGRID.ASP code. You could try to do this via the 'Advanced' tab of the gridDTC properties.

You could then include the formatting in a separate CSS file and add a reference to this file in your page.

<link REL=&quot;STYLESHEET&quot; HREF=&quot;../StyleSheet1.css&quot; TYPE=&quot;text/css&quot;>

This way all grids in your project will have the same formatting, which can be altered centrally.
