Running Total In Gridview Footer in ASP.NET C# VB.NET

In this example i am going to demonstrate how to display running total in footer row or footer template of GridView in ASP.NET using C# and VB.NET. This method works with paging enabled gridview as well.

For demo purpose gridview is populated using sqldatasource having table with columns ID ,Name,Amount

I m showing total of amount column is gridview footer. for this we need to sum the the column in RowDataBound Even of Gridiew













Html source of gridview is

<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" 
              AutoGenerateColumns="False"
              DataKeyNames="ID" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" 
              OnRowDataBound="GridView1_RowDataBound" 
              ShowFooter="True" AllowPaging="True" PageSize="5" 
              BackColor="#ffffff" BorderColor="AliceBlue" 
              BorderStyle="None" BorderWidth="1px" 
              CellPadding="3" 
              CellSpacing="2" FooterStyle-BackColor="#da821e" 
              FooterStyle-ForeColor="#ffffff" 
              RowStyle-BackColor="#003366" 
              RowStyle-ForeColor="#ffffff" 
              AlternatingRowStyle-BackColor="#da821e">
<Columns>
     <asp:BoundField DataField="ID" HeaderText="ID" 
                     InsertVisible="False" ReadOnly="True"
                     SortExpression="ID" />
     <asp:BoundField DataField="Name" HeaderText="Name" 
                     InsertVisible="False" ReadOnly="True"
                     SortExpression="Name" FooterText="Total"/>
     <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Amount">
     <ItemTemplate>
     <asp:Label ID="lblAmount" runat="server" 
                Text='<%# "$"+Eval("Amount").ToString()%>'>
     </asp:Label>
     </ItemTemplate>
     <FooterTemplate>
     <asp:Label ID="lblTotal" runat="server"></asp:Label>
     </FooterTemplate>
     </asp:TemplateField>
     </Columns>
     <PagerStyle ForeColor="#8C4510" HorizontalAlign="Center" />
     <HeaderStyle BackColor="#da821e" Font-Bold="True" 
                  ForeColor="White" />
</asp:GridView>
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" 
ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ConnectionString %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT [ID], [Name], [Amount] FROM [Expenses]">
</asp:SqlDataSource>

Now we need to write code for summing the column in RowdataBound Even of GridView

C# code behind

01public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page

02{

03    decimal grdTotal = 0;

04    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

05    {

06 

07    }

08protected void GridView1_RowDataBound

09                   (object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)

10{

11 if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)

12 {

13  decimal rowTotal = Convert.ToDecimal

14              (DataBinder.Eval(e.Row.DataItem, "Amount"));

15  grdTotal = grdTotal + rowTotal;

16 }

17 if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.Footer)

18 {

19  Label lbl = (Label)e.Row.FindControl("lblTotal");

20  lbl.Text = grdTotal.ToString("c");

21 }

22}

23}

VB.NET code behind

01Public Partial Class _Default

02    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

03    Private grdTotal As Decimal = 0

04    Protected Sub Page_Load

05    (ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)

06 

07End Sub

08 

09Protected Sub GridView1_RowDataBound

10(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridViewRowEventArgs)

11 

12If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.DataRow Then

13Dim rowTotal As Decimal =

14Convert.ToDecimal(DataBinder.Eval(e.Row.DataItem, "Amount"))

15grdTotal = grdTotal + rowTotal

16End If

17 

18If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.Footer Then

19Dim lbl As Label = DirectCast(e.Row.FindControl

20                           ("lblTotal"), Label)

21lbl.Text = grdTotal.ToString("c")

22End If

23End Sub

24End Class

Hope this helps
