Remarks

Use the DataTextField property to specify the field name from the data source to bind to the Text property of the buttons in the ButtonColumn object.

Binding the column to a field instead of directly setting the Text property allows you to display different captions for the buttons in the ButtonColumn by using the values in the specified field.

The value of this property is stored in view state.
