How INSANE that this isn't addressed anywhere in Microsoft's Web Dev tool's documentation. Good grief! Thanks for the fix -- was about to make a forehead-shaped dent in my desk! :-)

Thanks a lot for your post as it helped me save a lot of my time. It was working on my development machine and not on my production server and i was about to shoot myself for not able to resolve such a small thing.

But it seems that i need to shoot the MS guys :).

I'm using VB.Net in my ASP.Net page, and I don't have the HtmlEncode attribute in either the HTML or VB code. Any ideas?

The HTMLEncode is an attribute of the ASP.NET control on the .ASPX page. It makes no difference if you use VB.NET or C#.

Why won't it work for me? The server is running .net 2.0 SP1, and I'm using the standard datagrid control.

Since you are using ASP.NET 2.0, use a GridView control instead of a DataGrid.

HtmlEncode Enabled, this is because of security reasons. HtmlEncode makes sure (at least in some manners) that XSS-attacks are not possible. HtmlEncode should always be on.

In my opinion, a better solution is to use a TemplateField and perform the formatting in code behind.
