copied!<p>In general, you can look for an associated <code>*StringFormat</code> dependency property. For example, all <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.controls.contentcontrol.aspx" rel="noreferrer">ContentControl</a> implementations (such as Label and Tooltip) have the <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.controls.contentcontrol.contentstringformat.aspx" rel="noreferrer">ContentStringFormat dependency property</a>:</p> <pre><code><Label Content="{Binding Path=DateAsked}" ContentStringFormat="{}{0:yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss}" /> </code></pre> <p>In your case, while the <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.controls.gridviewcolumn.aspx" rel="noreferrer">GridViewColumn</a> has the <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.controls.gridviewcolumn.headerstringformat.aspx" rel="noreferrer">HeaderStringFormat dependency property</a> to go along with <code>Header</code>, there is no analog for the <code>DisplayMemberBinding</code> and so you will need .NET 3.5 SP1 (get it with <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyId=FBEE1648-7106-44A7-9649-6D9F6D58056E&displaylang=en" rel="noreferrer">Visual Studio 2008 SP1</a>) or better to use the new <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.data.bindingbase.stringformat%28v=VS.90%29.aspx" rel="noreferrer">BindingBase.StringFormat Property</a>:</p> <pre><code><GridViewColumn Header="Order ID" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding Path=OrderID, StringFormat='{}{0:dd.MM.yyyy}'}" /> </code></pre> <p>There are lots more examples at the blog post <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mikehillberg/archive/2008/05/29/trying-out-binding-stringformat.aspx" rel="noreferrer">Trying out Binding.StringFormat</a>.</p>
