Databinding datagrid through a dataset datasource: Image column not showing image but system.byte[]

Question

I have dragged and dropped a gridview into designer and configured the datasource to new SQLDataSource where I chose a Image table. In that, there are 3 columns (Id, Name, Image as image datatype). However once I configured and run the app, it doesn't show me the image column. Please help me, I want to display the image from the SQL DB to the datagrid 3rd column ...

Thank you

@Divine: If you post code it will be more helpful.

Few suggestions.

1. Do not use auto-generated columns of datagrid, as datagrid doesn't support image template column by default.

2. You should search to create a DataGrid Template columns. That will help you to display image or help you to customize your data and present in certain format.
