In ProjectGrid make sure StatusType has a get and (non-private) set.

C#

public YourType StatusType {get; set;}

In its class definition it'll only have a "get". Or it could be that the type is computed elsewhere and isn't a standard property. If that's the case you'll need to set the class up such that its StatusType returns the status you want.

C#

public YourType StatusType
{
    get
    {
        // look at how the status type is calculated and work out
        // from that how to set it
        return SomeFunctionThatCalculatesType();
    }   
}

Given the minimal information you have posted, it is unlikely any follow-up questions can be answered, we don't know your system, its rules, we can't access your code and databases.

Solution 2

Declare the property with public <datatype> status{get;set;}
or like
public <datatype> status;
this will probably solve your problem
