I have a c# windows application, that has a datagridview connected to SQL server database. I want to replace data with string equivalent data of integer of that in one column. I don't know, how to do this.
for example in a column we have:
0
1
1
0
2

I want to replace 0 with passed, 1 with returned, 2 with waiting

Thank you

Probably the easiest way is to change your query to use a CASE statement when selecting, for example:

SQL

SELECT CASE columnValue WHEN 0 THEN 'passed' WHEN 1 THEN 'returned' WHEN 2 THEN 'waiting' ELSE 'invalid code' END AS ReadableStatus FROM tableName

Otherwise, you will probably need to create a TypeConverter to use in the column's CellTemplate[^]
