    <p>I have a kendo gridview where one of the columns is for a boolean value. In the column, the information comes up labeled either "true" (for 1 or true), "false" (for 0 or false), or blank (for null). This does not look very professional, and I am trying to change these values in the grid to instead be displayed as Yes, No, or None (respectively). The code I am using to try to make this happen is:</p> <p><strong>Model:</strong></p> <pre><code>namespace MvcApplication.Models { public class Companies { public string IsAdmitted { get; set; } </code></pre> <p><strong>Controller:</strong></p> <pre><code> [HttpPost] public ActionResult Companies_Read([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request) { using (var companydata = new CompaniesDataContext()) { List&lt;Companies&gt; model = new List&lt;Companies&gt;(); var companylist = companydata.Companies_JBs.Select(s =&gt; s).ToList(); foreach (var h in companylist) { Companies x = new Companies(); x.IsAdmitted = h.IsAdmitted == (bool)true ? x.IsAdmitted = "Yes" : h.IsAdmitted == (bool)false ? x.IsAdmitted = "No" : x.IsAdmitted = "Null"; model.Add(x); } return Json(companydata.Companies_JBs.ToDataSourceResult(request)); } } </code></pre> <p><strong>View:</strong></p> <pre><code>@(Html.Kendo().Grid(Model) .Name("Company_Grid") .Columns(columns =&gt; { columns.Bound(o =&gt; o.IsAdmitted).Title("Admitted:").Width(95); columns.Command(command =&gt; { command.Edit(); command.Destroy(); }); } ) .ToolBar(toolbar =&gt; toolbar.Create().Text("Add a Company")) .Editable(editable =&gt; editable.Mode(GridEditMode.PopUp).TemplateName("Companies")) .Pageable() .Sortable() .Scrollable() .HtmlAttributes(new { style = "height:430px;" }) .DataSource(dataSource =&gt; dataSource .Ajax() .PageSize(20) .Events(events =&gt; events.Error("error_handler")) .Model(model =&gt; model.Id(o =&gt; o.ID)) .Create(update =&gt; update.Action("Companies_Create", "Home")) .Update(update =&gt; update.Action("Companies_Update", "Home")) .Destroy(update =&gt; update.Action("Companies_Destroy", "Home")) .Read(read =&gt; read.Action("Companies_Read", "Home")) ) ) </code></pre> <p>When I put a breakpoint and check the value, it says that the IsAdmitted field items are labelled as Yes, No, or None (depending on their value in my sql database). However, in the grid itself they are still labeled true, false, or blank. Whats my problem here, Or is there a better way to do this?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
