Hi All 
I want my gridview columns to have fixed width. Even though data is long, i 
want it to be shown only till the width permits. Further, I want to provide 
tool tip, so user can see full value in that. I don't want wrap to happen.  
Fixed width is working but data wraps. I tried all types. But no results.  
This is what I tried: 
I went to column's itemstyle and set width and wrap - Didn't work 
Some one suggested doing this in RowDataboundEvent. So tried. Not working.  
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow) 
{ 
 string thistext = e.Row.Cells[2].Text.Trim(); 
 thistext = "<SPAN 
style=\"width:50px;overflow:hidden;text-overflow:ellipsis;\">" + "<NOBR>" + 
thistext + "</NOBR></SPAN>"; 
 e.Row.Cells[2].Text = thistext; 
} 
I appreciate your help. 
Thanks, 
Prathiba
