Adding text to datagrid column value

Question

I would like to know if it is possible to add text to a datagrid column value?

    <DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding TotalEuro}" Header="Total €" MinWidth="100" MaxWidth="120" IsReadOnly="True"/>

Lets say I have the value "240" that I get from a database, now what I need is for it to display as "€ 240". Any advice would be greatly appreciated! :)

You should use stringformat

<DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding TotalEuro, StringFormat=€ {0}}" Header="Total €" MinWidth="100" MaxWidth="120" IsReadOnly="True"/>

You can use StringFormat to format your binding string and add the text do you need.

Example:

<DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding TotalEuro, StringFormat=€ {0}}" Header="Total €" MinWidth="100" MaxWidth="120" IsReadOnly="True"/>

Where {0} is your binding. If you need multibinding you can use {1}, {2} etc
