  I have a RadGrid being populated by an IEnumerable list of custom business objects (Orders). I am trying to compile a list of line items to add to the new order prior to saving (creating & inserting order in database) I am using a PopUp edit form for the RadGrid that has a RadListView on it. What is the best way to populate a list of items in memory that can be used both to databind to the RadList and create line items when the user chooses to "save" the Order? I can't save the list to the database, because an Order must exist first to reference to.

  Hi Charles,
  
  You could keep your data in the Session and write it to database only when required. You can see how we use a DataSet to populate RadGrid in Session and then the insert/update operations inside the control are saved in it at this address:
  Grid / Using Server-side API
  
  All the best,
