Applying formatting from Access database to a GridView
-

Question
Perhaps this is mere wishful thinking, but is there a simple way (in ASP.NET) to extract (at run-time) the formatting for different columns from a table in an Access 2007 database and apply that formatting to a GridView control?
Also, is there a way to get the "Caption" values for columns in a table in the database and use those as the column headers for the GridView?
I'm new at ASP.NET, so I don't know what's possible and what isn't :-)
Solution
Yes, this is wishful thinking. The drivers for ADO.NET to Access don't give you style information.
