I just want to know whether it is possible in a Web page to reduce a datagrid column's width so that no matter how many characters it has it shows only the first 4 characters. But if I refer to the grid data or increase cell size, I should be able to retreive the whole text.

Ex: if the cell data contains a string called "abcdefg asdfggh" I want to show only the first 4 characters and when I refer to the cell text or increase cell width it should show the whole text. (Simillar to the windows data grid).
If anyone knows any way please help.
