masking account numbers?

Question

First of all I'm not even sure if masking is the right term for what I'm trying to do here. I'm displaying account numbers in a datagrid but only want to display the last 4 digits. For example I want 123456789 to appear as XXXXX6789. Any suggestions on how to do this with a datagrid? Thanks in advance

You can always change the behavior of the grid by creating a new column type object and setting the grid column to that type. Your column type implementation could change the text to the masked version.
