I am using a RadGrid that contains a GridTemplateColumn. This GridTemplateColumn contains a FilterTemplate as well as an ItemTemplate. The FilterTemplate is a RadComboBox. The ItemTemplate is a Label. The table is displaying the string representation of an ID.
I want to run a sort based on the string displayed in the Label. However, since this data is not databound, it will not let me. It will allow me to run a sort based off of the underlying "Value" of this data. (The Value = RoleID and the Label contains the corresponding RoleName.)
How can I do this? I want to sort the GridTemplateColumn based on what is displayed in the ItemTemplate of this column (the Label).
Thanks!
Dave

If the RoleName is part of the table your binding the grid to, you could just set SortExpression="RoleName" for the template column.
I don't know if that's possible with your situation since you say it's not databound, but I don't see how you would enable sorting on something that isn't part of the grid's datasource.
