Hi,
I was trying to build a custom filter that will allow me to search for a specified string that contains special characters..I took the example from the online documention....I was hoping that someone would guide me through the rest of the way..
protected void GridChevronPortEQ_ItemCommand(object sender, GridCommandEventArgs e)
{
if (e.CommandName == RadGrid.FilterCommandName)
{
Pair filterPair = (Pair)e.CommandArgument;
if (filterPair.First.ToString() == "Contains")
{
string colName = filterPair.Second.ToString();
TextBox tbPattern = (e.Item as GridFilteringItem)[colName].Controls[0] as TextBox;
string[] values = tbPattern.Text.Split(' ');
if (values.Length == 2)
{
e.Canceled =
true;
string newFilter = "(([" + filterPair.Second + "] >='" + values[0] + "') AND ([" + filterPair.Second + "] <='" + values[1] + "'))";
if (GridChevronPortEQ.MasterTableView.FilterExpression == "")
{
GridChevronPortEQ.MasterTableView.FilterExpression = newFilter;
}
else
{
GridChevronPortEQ.MasterTableView.FilterExpression =
"((" + GridChevronPortEQ.MasterTableView.FilterExpression + ") AND (" + newFilter + "))";
}
GridChevronPortEQ.Rebind();
}
}
}
}
