How to Wrap the data of a Particular Column in GridView || Word Wrap for GridView columns

Hi Friends,in this article i will explain about How to Wrap the data of a Particular Column in GridView or Word Wrap for GridView columns.
I already explained in the previous articles about How to Maintain selected Checkboxes state while paging in GridView?,Filter and Sorting in GridView using DataView in ASP.NET using C#/VB.NET and Maintain The State Of Checkbox After Postback (Inside GridView)
Write the following code in ASP.NET
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
    <title>How to Wrap the data of a Particular Column in GridView || Word Wrap for GridView columns</title>
    <style type="text/css">
        .WordWrap
        {
            word-break: break-all;
        }
    </style>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
        <asp:GridView ID="GridWrap" runat="server" DataKeyNames="User_ID" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
            BackColor="White" BorderColor="#CC9966" BorderStyle="Solid" BorderWidth="1px" CssClass="WordWrap"
            CellPadding="4" Font-Names="Georgia" Font-Size="Small" Width="650px" AllowPaging="true">
            <Columns>
                <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="User ID">
                    <ItemTemplate>
                        <%#Eval("User_ID") %>
                    </ItemTemplate>
                    <ItemStyle Width="100px" />
                </asp:TemplateField>
                <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="User Name">
                    <ItemTemplate>
                        <%#Eval("Username") %>
                    </ItemTemplate>
                    <ItemStyle Width="100px" />
                </asp:TemplateField>
                <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Numbers">
                    <ItemTemplate>
                        <%#Eval("Numbers") %>
                    </ItemTemplate>
                    <ItemStyle Width="100px" />
                </asp:TemplateField>
                <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Gender">
                    <ItemTemplate>
                        <%#Eval("Gender")%>
                    </ItemTemplate>
                    <ItemStyle Width="100px" />
                </asp:TemplateField>
                <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Country">
                    <ItemTemplate>
                        <%#Eval("Country")%>
                    </ItemTemplate>
                    <ItemStyle Width="100px" />
                </asp:TemplateField>
            </Columns>
            <AlternatingRowStyle BackColor="#E6E6E1" />
            <HeaderStyle BackColor="#990000" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="#FFFFCC" />
        </asp:GridView>
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

In C#:
using System.Data;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.Configuration;

public partial class WrapGrid : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["con"].ConnectionString);
        SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("Select * from user_details", con);
        SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd);
        DataSet ds = new DataSet();
        da.Fill(ds);
        GridWrap.DataSource = ds;
        GridWrap.DataBind();
    }
}

In VB.NET
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Imports System.Configuration

Partial Public Class WrapGrid
    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
    Protected Sub Page_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
        Dim con As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("con").ConnectionString)
        Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("Select * from user_details", con)
        Dim da As New SqlDataAdapter(cmd)
        Dim ds As New DataSet()
        da.Fill(ds)
        GridWrap.DataSource = ds
        GridWrap.DataBind()
    End Sub
End Class

If you want to give the Wrap for particular column add the below event to Gridview in ASP.NET
OnRowDataBound="GridWrap_RowDataBound"
and write the following code in code behind.
C#:
  protected void GridWrap_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
        {
            e.Row.Cells[2].Attributes.Add("Style","word-break:break-all");
               
        }
    }
VB.NET
Protected Sub GridWrap_RowDataBound(sender As Object, e As GridViewRowEventArgs)
    If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.DataRow Then

        e.Row.Cells(2).Attributes.Add("Style", "word-break:break-all")
    End If
End Sub



The output of the above program as shown in the below images.
