Default control character limit within a Datagrid cell

hello,

Is it possible to limit the number of characters displayed in a Datagrid cell?

I'm makiung a Datagrid and the contents from my datafield are quite large in terms of paragraph. I just need to see the first couple of lines in the grid.

Is there a datagrid property that does this? Any helkp would be appreciated.

thanks,

ray

I would limit the number of characters coming back from your sql statement.
