Thanks Linda. I too couldn't find anyway to do it in the documentation. While floating in my pool (great place to think) it hit me that I could use a TemplateColumn for the field and it would allow me to access more than 1 field at a time to build the link. Still it seems like there should be someway to use DataNavigateUrlFormatString. If I find it I'll post it.

Hi Marshall, I have previously had the same problem. I searched the documentation and could not find a way of linking multiple fields using the DataNavigateUrlFormatString property. In the end I actually created the composite field in the database and then used the DataNavigateUrlFormatString property. Alternatively you could create a composite field in the dataset before you bind to the datagrid and then just link that field.
