format a date column in a datagrid

[conjurer111]

Hi,

I have a date column in a datagrid which displays the date as date time. How do I format it. I've seen a format column in the datagrid properties but can't seem to make it work. Thanks.

<asp:BoundColumn DataField=&quot;LastDate&quot; HeaderText=&quot;Last Date&quot; DataFormatString=&quot;{0:d}&quot; ItemStyle-width=&quot;40px&quot; Sortexpression=&quot;LastDate&quot;/>

This is a row from a datagrid where sotring is taking place, but the format should work
