NetTiers EntityGridView Deepload display readonly lookup

If you need your netTiers gridview (EntityGridView) to have a column that just displays a read only value from a lookup table then the data source will need to deepload but <asp:BoundField> won’t be able to access the lookup value. NetTiers’ own controls are only dropdowns, hyperlinks and radiobuttons, so to display the lookup value (rather than the ID), you need to add a template field

<asp:TemplateField>  
  <ItemTemplate>  
    <%# Eval("ApplicIdSource.Applic")%>  
  </ItemTemplate>  
</asp:TemplateField>

as described here:

An alternative to this is to use a  field, use CSS to stop it looking like a hyperlink and don’t let it navigate anywhere:

<data:HyperLinkField ControlStyle-CssClass="table-hyperlink-nofollow" HeaderText="Body part" DataNavigateUrlFormatString="#" DataNavigateUrlFields="Bodypartid" DataContainer="BodypartidSource" DataTextField="Bodypartdescription" />

The first method is probably the better way.
