I've 'indented' my first column by adding blank spaces( ) to the beginning of the text in the first column.  The number of spaces added were based on what level the row's data pertained to.  It would show something like this:

                     Customer Report

                               May 2013           June 2013

COUNTRY                5,555,555            5,555,555

    Region                   444,444               444,444

       State                     33,333                 33,333

         Store #1               2,222                   2,222

         Store #2               1,111                   1,111

 

Hi paindaasp I am using template field and taking data from from database so can u tell me where did u added spaces????

 

 

It is in the GridView's RowDataBound event.

But how to add space in .cs page.....what is the syntax m not getting it.

 

Thanks

 

This is a simple example in VB that checks to see if the third column has a 2 in it.  If it does, it indents the second column.  If you are using TemplateFields, you'll probably have to cast to a label(or whatever control is active in the column) and use
FindControl to manipulate the text.

Private Sub gridview1_RowDataBound(sender As Object, e As GridViewRowEventArgs) Handles gridview1.RowDataBound
    Dim indent As String = "     "
    If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.DataRow Then
      If e.Row.Cells(2).Text.ToString.Contains("2") Then
        e.Row.Cells(1).Text = indent & e.Row.Cells(1).Text
      End If
    End If
  End Sub
