I'm just starting into VB.NET programming, and have designed a simple webpage with a dropdown list (dynamically read from SQL) that populates a GridView showing only that color's formula. It deals with color-mixing formulas for specialized paint. The formulas themselves have it's inidividual parts separated by semi-colons in one of the columns, and I want to use this character as a line-break, so that each formula part is shown on a seperate line within the GridView cell. I have tried numerous ways to Replace, Split, etc, but running into a road-block. Where/how do I add code to perform this replacement?

Here's my code as it sits:

<body> 
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
        <div> 
            <asp:ImageButton ID="ImageButton1" runat="server" 
                             AlternateText="Home Page" Height="46px" 
                             ImageUrl="~/Images/Block_Tagline.jpg"
                             PostBackUrl="~/Default.aspx" Width="140px" />
            <br />
            <asp:LoginName ID="LoginName" 
                           FormatString="Currently logged in as {0}" 
                           runat="server" 
                           ForeColor="#009933" />
            <br />
            <br />
            <br />
            Choose Your Color:
            <asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList1" runat="server" 
                              AutoPostBack="true" 
                              OnSelectedIndexChanged="DropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged">
            </asp:DropDownList>

        con1.Open()

        Dim cmd1 As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("Select BlankColor from z_md_ColorFormulas", con1)
        Dim dr1 As SqlDataReader = cmd1.ExecuteReader()

        While dr1.Read()
            DropDownList1.Items.Add(dr1(0).ToString())

Just to flesh out your answer user988265 I assume you meant using the code:

<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Colours">
    <ItemTemplate>
        <%# Eval("Colour").ToString().Replace(";","<br />") %>
    </ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>

Worked for me when I needed something similar. Was wondering is it possible to have this populate a drop-down list though?
