  With RadControls you no longer have to stick with simplistic UIs in your ASP.NET MVC Views. Telerik UI controls support Microsoft ASP.NET MVC and allow you to combine the testability and separation of concerns of the emerging technology with the richness of traditional ASP.NET server controls.
  
  Here is a list of resources that will help you get started with RadControls in ASP.NET MVC:
  

  • Online Documentation including general overview as well as specific topics for the controls
  • Sample Application with source code included
  • Couple of blogposts: here and here

  
  Enjoy your ASP.NET MVC projects now with RadControls!

  Will you provide full support of the AJAX capabilities of your controls for MVC in the future?

  Hi Thomas,
  
  Could you please provide more details on what exactly do you need in your projects? What are your scenarios and what limitations do you currently face?
  
  We are now gathering feedback and considering a couple of different options for next steps and comments/suggestions will be very welcome.

  Hey Ivo,
  
  for sure I can do this. We do a site that is intended to edit photo meta-informations. We implemented your workaround for the RadGrid (slightly modified so we can have multiple Grids on one page) to make update/edit/select happen in MVC. It would be nice to have these functions more cleanly integrated with true AJAX calls so they do not force a page reload. Overall the most useful thing for us would be a Grid, that is more comfortable to use for developer and for the user (e.g. Auto-pagination or even better the hidden reload of rows on scrolling). I think you set the level very high with your RadGrid in WebForms already. If you get there in MVC as well that would be a dream come true ;)

  Hello Thomas,
  
  Thanks for the feedback and details.
  
  We will be extending the MVC support for RadControls and will be making things even more straightforward in the coming releases.
  
  Please don't hesitate to share any other comments or suggestions.

  In your first post of this thread, there is a "source code included" that link is wrong.  You should remove %20 on that link.

  When you say "We will be extending the MVC support for RadControls and will be making things even more straightforward in the coming releases." does that mean that you plan on providing a full client solution for the controls you currently provide?
  
  To me the current solution of adding form server tag around the controls is just not acceptable.

  I have had a ticket open since Mar 19th and a post in this forum on a critical issue we are having with the MVC implementations of these controls.  I agree with Fabio that if telerik is going to make the statement of support then it needs to provide the support.  I have been a very loyal customer and happy with support but the overall response to MVC has been poor.  Please help us make this a success for Telerik together.

  Hello Fabio and Doug,
  
  We are aware of the limitations that some of the RadControls have in ASP.NET MVC environment and we are looking for ways to work around them. We are in the process of gathering customer requirements for improvements and also discussing a couple of options with Phil Haack and the other guys on the MVC team at Microsoft -- and there will be improvements in the coming releases.
  
  Now that v1.0 of ASP.NET MVC is officially released we are enthusiastic to make Telerik controls even more MVC-friendly.
  
  @Doug, your specific question on RadFileExplorer has been addressed here
  
  All the best,
  Ivo

  Thanks Ivo.  I appreciate your help and I'm looking forward to the results from your discussions with Phil and the MVC team.  If you need any help with building demos let me know.

  Thanks, Doug.
  
  Actually we will be eager to hear about the ASP.NET MVC projects you guys are working on. What difficulties do you face? And how do you see Telerik helping you?
  
  Please share your experience. If you want to attach any project or provide proprietary info please open a support ticket (we will be happy to sign an NDA if needed)

  Any chance we could get the source code for this video http://tv.telerik.com/telerikwatchminute/episode/Telerik_Watch_Minute_RadMVC
  
  in particular the PagingExtensions code for the radgrid control (and any other Extensions code for Sorting and filtering)
  
  Thanks

  Hi Michael,
  
  The source of the MVC samples is available here: http://demos.telerik.com/mvc/Home/Help. From the source you'll find all of the helper classes for Grid, Editor, etc. Hope that helps!

  Hi,

   

  We are currently using the Trial version of your Grid. Before we decide to move on to the full-version of the Telerix grid, I wanted to clear out certian issues with the grid for which I am unable to find a solution.

   

  Here's the situation :

  We have some number of columns in the grid which are related to each other, due to which, if we change a value in any of the cells then the value of some other cells (in same row or even other row) may be changed.

  In short, edition of one cell may reflect a change in some other cell in any row. Now I want to find the cell which is currently in edit mode in the grid control. Could you please guide us in this, as to how this can be

  achieved?

  Awaiting Reply.

  Hello Abhijit,
  
  For MVC development we commend using our native MVC extensions instead of RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX. The grid extension offers batch cell editing mode with value tracking that you will probably find useful for your scenario. Feel free to extend the sample to conform to your particular requirements.
  
  Best regards,

  Thanks Sebastian,
     Telerik Team.

                          Today i will check for getting current edited cell value.Thanks for this valuable input.but our requirement is to with single row of grid below i mention our clear requirement Plz see and help me for it.

  1) Suppose we have three column Amount,Rate and Unit.

  consider Amount value=100 ,Rate=10 and Unit=10
  if i change Amount value to 50 then as per amount change formula i.e Amount/Rate i.e i will calculate 50/10 =5 will save in Unit.

  if i change Rate=5 then as per formula Rate* Unit ie (5*10) = 50 will save in amount

  means in short we change our rule as per column we edit.

  this all functionality should be from java script(Client Side) as well as Server side.

  I hope you will understand our requirement will provide some valueable input to use your controls

  Thanks & Regards
  Abhijit

  Hello Abhijit,
  
  Based on your description, I believe you can use the functionality presented on this AJAX demo as a starting point and port it for your MVC scenario accordingly (using our MVC NumericTextBox component for this purpose).
