what is row data bind in asp.net?

RowDataBound - Is event getting called for each row in grid when data is binding to that row.
This include your header also.

You can use this event to get the data values at the time of binding & apply your logic.
For Ex. If there is requirement that if for perticular column values is greater than 50 render the value with RED & BOLD font.

You should be very carefull using this event because large amount of data will cause performance issue as the event will be called for every row & if you add logic to be performed on every row.. it will require more time...
